Help - Cant Repair Glitch

All my equipment is white in the upgrade ship screen yet when I leave base my radar and amour is damaged. I've tried just selling the equipment and re-buying but it doesn't prevent the radar from being on the fritz as if damaged. The only way to stop the malfunctioning is to use the Basic Repair which costs more than just buying all new equipment. This has happened a couple times that I remember.

Any ideas whats going on?


Here is the save game file.

We've had a few people come over the years and make Privateer modifications.

Could you please post the exact name and version of the mod? (Privateer Remake, Privateer Gemini Gold, Parallel Universe)
Is it version 1.2 or 1.02a? 1.02a uses a much newer engine which should have fixed this upgrade problem.

If you are using a new version of Privateer, could you please attach the centurion.blank.csv file which should be inside of "serialized_xml"?

Its Privateer Remake and version 1.2. I just downloaded it a few days ago.

I'm experiencing the problem again. It may have something to do with my repair droids as well. They've repaired it to the green but it still stays messed up. It seems to happen when the radar is severely damaged (in the red).

Here is the file from save game2 with the glitch:

Sorry, 1.2 is the old version. I forgot to say that in my first post. There are still some old websites that are hosting it, however the 1.2 version has been abandoned.

The only known fix is to download a new version of the engine, which should be compatible with 1.2.

Overall, it might just be better to get the Gemini Gold 1.02a mod at priv.solsector.net
You can also try going to the "parallel universe" site.

Guys, PR has not been updated in years. I'm not sure if we've actually addressed this particular bug; I suspect not; but we've addressed many others in Parallel Universe --the successor of PR; and there are more ships and more adventures and better graphics; and it's in active development, and support is available at the pu forum.
