Status UpdateCambragol and I managed to get in several solid hours of bug hunting and the mod went from totally broken (you could not trade cargo or mine) back to working.
The behavior of the wingmen is markedly improved over Torn Stars. A large number of minor irritations caused by the prior design have been fixed. Things like unarmed transports rushing off to attack because they have the same escort order as the warships. Or transports being left behind because they don't formate correctly after loading/unloading cargo pods. Despite all this progress, I don't think we will be ready to start Alpha testing before New Years.. . .
