did the CTD happen as soon as the torp hit the carrier? Was the carrier instantly destroyed by the torp?

Yes, it was as soon as the torpedo hit. When the mod was disabled the carrier did go up with a single hit (strange, but that's a whole different problem

).

TDW, I mentioned this a page or two back.Do the starshells come as part of the remit on the IR AI work? Perhaps you will deal with this under the AI tactics

Would be nice as part of the eye candy side side of things

once I get the mod stable (no CTDs which currently happens with torpedoing battleships and carriers) then I'll start adding eye candy

EDIT:

single carriers and single battleships don't cause CTDs when you torpedo them. It's only when they are part of a group......

did you have any other mods enabled at the time when this happened? Had you been already detected when the torp hit?
I just ran the single mission 'The Pedestal' and took out the carrier (which was the commander). As soon as the torp hit the planes all went up in flames, the carrier's back broke, and no CTD. Everything was ok

TDW,

When I hit my QE yesterday I was also using Uboat killer mod. This may cause some conflicts. I installed that mod first, then yours.

figured out why the mod was causing CTDs on some ships

the commander assigns ships to a tactic based on their distance from the enemy contact. Some of these ships have the ability to DC, some don't. Those that don't cause the CTD when they are asked to fire their DCs. I've fixed the problem and I'll be releasing v0.0.6 here soon.
That was one hell of a hard one to find and figure out

Good to hear you got that one fixed! Of course, I never really doubted that you would fix it

Well done TDW, fault finding can be one tricky pain in the A**.

TheDarkWraith · 07-10-10, 07:59 PM

turns out it wasn't the whole DC thing causing the CTD. It was my trying to issue a command for the ship assigned to the tactic to head to the contact's location when the contact was NULL. Game doesn't like trying to figure out NULL contacts

I've been testing this for about 3 hours now and it's stable

I've added some new tactics and roles to the ships in v0.0.6. I'll be uploading it here very soon.
