Re: Error
range check error is usually caused by a call for something that is out of range (ie asking for 300 planets when 255 is max)

Re: Error
Ouch...
So I've input something that goes beyond the limits of the game's internal math.
Difficult to track down, in other words. Hmmmm. It always crops up in fights, so, likely something (I hope) that has to do with weapons.
Is there a max range on weapons? Max/min other things in the component entries?

Re: Error
I think I fixed it. I shortened the ranges on one weapon I found that had a range over 400, and now the error seems to have gone away.

Re: Error
That can't be the only source of your error, since I've had weapons with ranges in the thousands that worked fine..

Re: Error
Perhaps it was something else and I 'accidentally' corrected it. All I know is that it's not happening any more... for the time being.
Weapons with ranges above 1000? What ever for... that's a good chunk of the map! It was a beam/torpedo, right? I've discovered that bolt weapons self destruct after X-time, regardless of 'effective range'. (I'll learn how to modify that eventually).

Re: Error
Egh.... I didn't manage to get rid of it, the range check error is still there.
Still don't have a clue what's causing it, either. :/

Re: Error
The weapon range was me attempting to be sneaky with something.
