I took a new copy of SE, added the textures to the textures/spacecrafts folder, and added files from the new archive. I then exported .sss copies of the ships from the web version into the models/spacecraft folder. SE crashes when I build one of the ships, and to launch it again I have to remove said ships from spacecrafts.cfg. The log just ends with:

Saving script "config/spacecrafts.cfg"

What am I doing incorrectly?

Sounds strange. Have you extracted files from archive into root SE folder?
Could you please attach resulted .sss and original .json?

Ok, found problem. SE does not support scientific notation in matrix, so parser fails.
I've made quick fix for web-version, so you can reexport your ships using it (other versions I'll update this weekend).
But for such big ships it is better to use export to .sm, becuase in this case FPS will be better.
Also, it is possible to fix existing .sss in any text editor, that supports regular expression.
Just replace following:
\d\.\d*e-\d*
with 0

I have a question about the editor. How does the secondary mainframe work? Nothing shows up when I select it. How do I connect mainframes without stacking them on each other, like sideways or something?

Nevermind, I have just found it out myself.





I will be inactive on this forum for the time being. Might come back eventually

I like what you did with the textures on the large rings, looks really good.

Web-version does not crash. Probably it is a problem with node-webkit. Try to download latest version from official site. Also, on my work PC there was a problem with missed d3dcompiler_43.dll, so I've added it into distribution. Try to delete it from editor folder.

BTW, code for web-version and downloadable version is absolutely the same.

Deleting that file fixed the crashing on launch.




Did a couple custom parts as a test for adding more in the future. If anyone wants the files they are all attached to this post.

index.html goes in the default editor folder

modules.js goes in editor\js

Both obj files go in editor\models
linear_nf_engine_reverse.obj
RoundFrame.obj

Backup your original files before overwriting

Should look like this when in the editor

Attachments: index.html (28.2 Kb) · linear_nf_engin.obj (184.0 Kb) · RoundFrame.obj (18.3 Kb) · modules.js (15.8 Kb)

Cool. Actually, it is quite painful to add new items into editor.
I hope it will be more easily in future releases.

The toridial habitat module ought to be made larger or with more apparent shielding. Having a million little windows like that might pose more risk then necessary when your ship has all sorts of radioactive engines or hyperdrives filled with exotic matter.

I think there should be some more options for habitable areas. Smaller zero-G modules or larger (and more heavily shielded) habitable rings are good places to start.

Just put your propellent tanks between the two.

hyperdrives filled with exotic matter.

I don't think any reasonable amount of shielding will matter in that case.
