*grumble*
Okay, now I've done something and it won't let me launch a new campaign. I have no idea what, since I completely wiped the game and reinstalled clean, and patched.
Currently all I am attempting to use is a new components.bmp image file and an edited components.txt file - but each time I attempt to launch a new campaign it gets to the 'generating campaign' splash at 90% and halts. Alt-F4 brings me back to the game menu.
The .BMP file works fine, it's something in the .txt file that I cannot figure out.
Anyone care to look at offer assistance in figuring out this headache?
<edit>
After some experimentation I have some clues... For instance, I've created 3 different types of 'bridge', (basic, advanced, elite). For some strange reason the starting ship loads the one with the highest 'level' requirement. I do not know why. The game chokes during startup just to do that with the bridge, and I guess if I have the other parts likewise (crew quarters, life support, et al) It just can't take the multiple instances.
Why, being my question? I've put 'min level' requirements on them, but it's apparently being ignored?
