High speeds not supported

    Hey there, I put an engine with 3000m/s cruise speed in the Patriot ship, and when I went into cruise, when I hit about 2000 the game crashed. Well, it didn't crash fully, it just minimized to the start bar, and wouldn't let me bring it back up, but I could still hear the music and sound effects. Very strange.


    I think it might have something to do with the LOD ranges on the ship, but I'm not sure. Anyone had something like this happen or know whats going on?

    oh a CTD. wait a sec... look at the Speed Mod (included in FLMM installation and if i remember right goes all the way to 16.000 m/s). Maybe that'll help.


    And High-speeds are supported. Think about it -> Tradelanes go 2500 m/s w/ no crashing

    I found the problem. I am using a mod that allows different cruise speed for different engines, and if I have the CRUISE_SPEED line in the constants.ini it must cause some kind of conflict. I removed that line and it seems to work fine though.

    I never would have thought of that if I hadn't followed you suggestion. btw, what is a CTD? is this type of crash common?

    Crash To Desktop is rather common when the modding's gone wrong :)
