Bug with upgraded Fusion Beam Cannon Forge
I've found new bug with moving upgraded station. I've built Fusion Beam Cannon Forge factory and upgraded it with S kit to medium version. After that I've moved it to another sector, but it was builded as completelty different station - with new model, new parameters, even with new article in encyclopedia. Also, after moving it started to produce "Unknown Object" instead of Fusion Beams Cannons:

Re: Bug with upgraded Fusion Beam Cannon Forge
this is not a bug, but intentional
the model of the station was changed as the original one was not suitable for complexes so it was switch to a player version of the terran station.
it wasn't really possible to replace the model with already built factories, but instead it switches them when you pack and re-deploy instead.
if you were to buy a new station and deploy it, you will get the new model too

Re: Bug with upgraded Fusion Beam Cannon Forge
But what about it's production? It says that result will be "Unknown Object". With another differencies aswell:

I mean, I don't care about station models,I like both, but station before and after moving are completely different, even in parameters. I can upload 2 save files for you, if you want, just say to where.

Re: Bug with upgraded Fusion Beam Cannon Forge
And... I tried to upgrade factory to L size before moving. Result - broken station again, now L size. Production - Unknown Oblect. Screenshots here:

Can't check how it will work with another modified stations because they currently under upgrade.

Re: Bug with upgraded Fusion Beam Cannon Forge
The different station models referred to are to allow more or less connections/docks than the previous version, so fairly crucial if building 'plexes. The station designs themselves, while pretty, are simply additional cruft added to make the final build look less nonsensical visually IG (& possibly readjust its hitbox location/size)Artificial wrote: ↑Sat, 26.

All this is IMO from inferences derived from previous comments, bugreps & patch notes, so may not be entirely accurate

Re: Bug with upgraded Fusion Beam Cannon Forge
Yeah, I can understand that, and that's why I said that I like both models. But problem is in station parameters after it's being moved - they all are different between "before" and "after". And result production different aswell - station starts to produce "Unknown Objects" instead of "Fusion Beam Cannons".
I think, problem here lays in incorrect linking in script or incorrect parameters for "replacement" station, but can't confirm it by myself so I did report about bug in that form. Hope, it won't be ignored.
Btw, as I said before, I made reserve copy of 2 save files "before" and "after", can upload them to help with finding issue.

Re: Bug with upgraded Fusion Beam Cannon Forge
Well, I waited in SETA around 12 hours and checked how Plasma Beam Cannon Forge XXL (argon beam laser factory) survived moving - and it wasn't affected with that bug, same model as before migration and same parameters, even production is correct:Cycrow wrote: ↑Sat, 26.

I not sure, is problem only woth terran's Fusion Beam Cannon Forge or not, but at least, I can say that Plasma Beam Cannon Forge XXL survived migration without bug.

Re: Bug with upgraded Fusion Beam Cannon Forge
It's not to say what happens you is not possible (Like some people would ahah) but to give some precisions.
I moved a lot of stations lately, and even full complexes bit by bit and had not run into this issue yet. But also, i haven't moved any of my weapon factory so far (What will soon happen) so my guess is that it doesn't target all the factories but only a few of them. No issues so far with microships, food or space fuel.
But will have to move soon my "War complex" where i have my shields and all that is related to Ore ... So i guess i'll find out pretty soon.

Re: Bug with upgraded Fusion Beam Cannon Forge
if you buy and deploy a new fusion beam cannon, does that one work correctly with the new model, or is it broken as well ?
i tried to reproduce it, but its working correctly for me.
the old model was replaced by the new one, and the production for the new station was working correctly

Re: Bug with upgraded Fusion Beam Cannon Forge
The core point to me seams to be first upgrade than move, so the moved station differs from it Tfactories entry by production size.
My X3 Mods
XRebirth, things left to patch:
In General; On Firing NPC's; In De Vries; Out Of Zone; And the Antiwishlist

Re: Bug with upgraded Fusion Beam Cannon Forge
Thats not how it works, upgraded stations dont have different entries in TFactories, its still the same factory, just their production is increased.ubuntufreakdragon wrote: ↑Wed, 30.

Looks like the issue with only with existing games, it works fine for new games.
Its not fully loading the update file that defines the stations product so it doesn't know what its supposed to be
