cant mod XL ships at workbench.

[Crash9010]

I can mod every class of ship but XL seems to freeze up the workbench menu and i cant even switch from guns, shields, engines, etc. I do have some mods but none of them are supposed to mess with workbench. Any ideas?

Try first without mods, as they can interact/mess up the game in unexpected ways. Knowing which mods you use can also help exclude what mods could be the culprit, as some don't work nice together.

i turned off every mod except the Ship Variation and rebalance mod VRO. if i turn that off the game wont load my saves. Did not fix the problem. The problem started yesterday. I can build any ship and equip it but the workbench just freezes up.

Sounds like your savegame is botched then. In a vanilla game, you can mod XL ships without a problem at the shipyard.

that sucks because i really dont want to have to go through all these story missions again.

Jip, that's the risk coming from using mods.

Your best chance to solve that is to get into contact with each mod author (or better yet: figure out which mod is the culprit) and check if there is an update / fix.

This is why I always say there are NO must have mods.

I wish you well kiopta1 as it is no fun having a save break after so many hours of play invested in it. I hope you find the cause and get a fix.

This is a current issue with VRO at the moment. The developer released the 5.0+DLC version as a beta only as he lives in Ukraine and is unable to work on it much. I have been using it for 20+ hours and it seems fairly stable, only issue is you can't mod most L/XL shields.

thanks all. yeah i started a new game and everything seems fine so far. I hope the dev stays safe.

Can you share the file link? Thanks.

Were you talking about the mod "workbench" in the game to modify your ship components? Or actual mods to the game using Steam "Workshop."

[Crash9010]

I use mods from Workshop. but my issue appears to be that I can't mod L and XL ship shields at the workbench in shipyard stations. i can mod ship weapons, hulls, and engines but not the L and XL ship shields.

I just tried to add modifications to a Mammoth at the workbench in Argon Prime Shipyard. the ship does not show up at all.
Vanilla game, no DLC, no sneaky changes in config files.
There is a small ship docked and I can see that at the workbench.

If you can see S and M Ships you are on a Spacedock. If you can see L and XL Ships you are on a Shipyard.

You cant Modify all 4 size ships on the same type of NPC Station. You would need to build one yourself with production modules for all 4 Types of ship size. You would need 3 expensive modules to do that.

If you can buy L and XL Ships on that station your Mammoth is docked at, you are on the correct station and there seems to be something wrong with your game.

Edit: You did research modifications did you?!?
Edit2: nvm if you can mod S Ships shoul work for L and XL aswell. XD

Definitely at the shipyard, I was ready at the bench waiting for it to finish building, I even waited for it to undock and re-dock. nvm, no big deal.
