Er... should it show anything? You realize that most modules have some prerequisite tech you have to research before they will show up in the starbase upgrade screen?

nope i got interstellar refining can make fusion power plants and its a prereq for the resource refinery but the upgrade menu is totally blank...

If I remember correctly the resource refinery is a mining upgrade, meaning starbases not mining a resource won't have those modules available (one possibility). Have you downloaded any mods or altered the files in any way? And how are you reaching the screen? Are you putting constructors on autopilot, using a fleet of constuctors, or using the arrow keys to move you ship?

Unless anyone else's had this problem, I'm completely stumped :notsure: Any info you can supply will help us solve this one.

Just out of curiosity, are the files named "CoreModules.SBMODULE" or "coremodules.sbmodule"? I've made some silly programming mistakes in the past myself, so just erring on the safe side here ;)

Leonardo was the most skilled of the Turtles. Michelangelo was only good for stealing pizza, the scumbag. LOL

Tonmoril: Yeah, if the mod's aren't done correctly you have get some weirdness :(

FoJ: The only thing Leonardo was the most skilled at was kissing Spinters butt...always doing everything by the "Ninja Code of Honor"..without Mikey you wouldn't have had any of the catchphrases or comic releif. ;) To each his own, I suppose.

Yup, Ralph Wiggum says it after he wins the Diarama-rama and falls down. His diarama was a bunch of Star Wars figures still in their original packages, and he won because Principal Skinner got nostalgic, while Miss Hoover was apathetic about all of the diaramas.

Always check your debug.err file after you start a game for the first time with a new mod to see if there are any parse errors. 1 parse error will mess up all the files read in after it.
