Point Defense Error

[Raging Deadstar]

I'm in a high tech game and when my ships move in to attack and fire off the point defnese cannons it freezes with the following error

"Scan Line Index out of Range"

I'm playing On TDM+Fyron's Quadrent Mod Deluexe. Is this a data file error or something that can be fixed as i'm none to keen on starting again!

There shouldn't be anything in any of the Quadrant Mods that would effect ship systems or combat. Can you give any other details? Like how many PD's your ships have, what you're fighting, etc?

Ok

There were 3 dreadnoughts in the fleet. Each had 3 point defense and were fighting the Zyranna holdings fighters and 2 drones. The normal beam weapons (shield accelerators and anti proton beams) fire with no error, as soon as i move into range one point defense is fired and the error comes up. I can click on the ship that was selected and select which weapons to fire, but can't move the map around, click on any other ships, fire weapons etc

???

Normally, the PD would engage these things as soon as they are in its range (much farther out than 1). Does TDM do anything to the specs on PD?

Yes, but if the enemy units are out of the point defenses range and you move into range they fire automatically, this is what happens and then the error is generated

As far as i'm aware TDM and FQM Deluxe do nothing to any weapons or facilities

I think you're right.

Well, I'm stumped. Next!
