Hi Walt,

I am experiencing a problem with saving my ship designs. When I try to save a ship by going into buildmode and then select the save ship design-option, an error message shows up that it does not have access to the "C:\Users.....\My Games\Cosmoteer\Saved Ships\Mk I.ship.png". I have checked my settings if my System or Administrator have any restrictions, which they do not. Do you have any idea what the problem could be?

I love your game! I see massive potential.

    It doesn't let me put ships into the game, even though it shows them in the my ships tab for getting a new ship from the ship library

      @Walt can you please replace the screenshots with newer screenshots.

        Please start a new topic and post the actual error.

              You should ask the creator of a mod before sharing anything from it in your mod. Legally speaking, they own the copyright to their mod.

                    I must say. Devising a way to save the ship design as a picture of said design is very ingenuous. Whoever wants to check how the ship looks like before loading it can just load it as a picture instead of a ship design. Very ingenuous indeed. My only problem with it is that it tends to save it as a blueprint or as some darkened version of it.

                    Rather annoying, i hope it gets fixed. Still good and impressive, though.

                      It'll save it as the blueprints if the blueprints are at all different from the ship's physical state.

                      Not sure why it saves dark -- that's a bug I've never experienced myself and haven't figured out yet.

                        Walt Still, it'd be better if, instead of taking a picture of the screen as it seems to do, have it generate the image file acording to some other in-game constants (related to the blueprint). But i'm not sure how it works, maybe i'm just spewing nonsense xP

                                can you make a webpage were you can upload ship designs and you can download them?

                                Alec There are already two places for that. This forum, and the Discord. Please realize that hosting webpages require money. While I'm sure Walt likes the idea of having a dedicated webpage, it will be made obsolete once the game is onto steam.

                                    Alec Also check out the Community Ships mod. Anyone can upload and download ships from it.

                                      Walt It saves dark when you have "Show Ship Interior" when saving a ship design. It also seems to happen in Blueprint mode, since that by default seems to show the interior.

                                      Version 12.10.rc3

                                        Enigmatica This has happened before 0.12.10rc3. As far as I know the exact reason it does this is not known.

                                            Actually, I believe it's entirely the fault of saving while in blueprint mode. Will fix it for the next update. Thanks!
