Well this is weird....
I changed all the asteroid names in PlanetSize.txt to fit with the size. Now, Se4 makes asteroids with pics. But, their type is listed as "None - ", with no size. And they have no name displayed on the system map. Very weird...
I think that it might be a hardcode issue with Asteroid objects. I can not see any difference between what you did and what I did with Ancient Planets in FQM, and those work fine. Send a bug report email to
se4gold@malfador.com along with your modded data files. Hopefully this is a bug that MM can fix for us.
Ok... if you change the names of the types in StellarAbilityTypes.txt to not have the words used as size classes (tiny, small, etc.) in the name, then you get asteroids with appropriate pics, abilities, and everything, except that their Type is listed as "Rock - ". So, this is the best solution I can find at present. Still send in a bug report to MM.
