Zeus FH-5000

[Excaliber (OP)]

Can anybody tell me what might be causing an overflow error on this design? I did not receive any errors until the ship was built and the task group was selected.

My final solution to empire wide fuel shortages.

Edit: in the ship component summary it lists the first 7 components.  Then there are 25 blank entries.   Then the last 5 components which all equal 0.  0% of ship weight.   I wonder If that could be it?

Looks like an overflow from something being too big, check this thread http://aurora2.pentarch.org/index.php/topic,6739.0.html.
I would assume it's either the tonnage, fuel quantity or maximum range.
Edit: Ok I'm stumped, everything seems to be within the limits proposed in that thread, It might be from maintenance...

Could be the name of one of your components, did something give you an overflow error when you designed it? On my game, blank entries show up when I design something with a name with to many characters, it gives an overflow when designed, then makes a blank space on the component list, something similar could be happening here.

I think its probably just sheer size... kinda on the ridiculious side of things. Also are you expecting to make a commercial shipyard that size to build it? Heck you might be drawing overflows because of the mineral demands for the design.

Also... i knew you could do size 1 passives on ships, but not actives

lol, for the kind of fleets I start to build 120 years into a game this harvester is barely adequate.      My newest 750k ton Battleship can gobble up fuel faster then one of these massive harvesters can produce it.      I doubt it is the mineral cost being as how the highest is roughly 350k duranium.    The shipyard that already produced it can build something twice it's size and it really doesn't take long on auto-expand to have massive shipyards.

[/spoiler]
This bad boy is meant to quickly react to distant threats, maintain a presence and exude awesome for years by itself, in contested systems.  (dang,
 I just noticed I forget flight crew births)
  
I'll check and see if it's the maintenance.  I don't think it is the component names since they'll all the default standard ones.  Thanks for all your help guys. 

Edit: Well, the problem seems to have resolved itself.  I can now select the task group without getting overflow errors.  For some reason it just happened when I first selected it from the ship yard  to create it's own TG.  I don't know what happened but I'm building another one to see if it happens again.  I must love breaking aurora because I seem to do it all the time.

How can that jump itself with a commercial jump drive and military engines?

[Excaliber (OP)]

I thought you could combine them? Wouldn't it just experience the jump lag of a commercial jumpdrive? The ship is only half complete at the moment so I'll know soon enough.

[83athom]

Civilian jump drives cannot jump a military ship. However a military jump drive can jump a civilian ship.

[MarcAFK]

I think Jump drives are still bugged in the current version, you can jump military with civilians, in one of the last versions size didn't matter, anything could jump with a 500 ton commercial drive

[Excaliber (OP)]

I am happy to report that the BB Sovereign has been built and has successfully made its first jump but on future designs I'll use military jump drives if that is a bug. 

Edit: derp

The first jump was through a gate.  Commercial jump drives cannot use military engines.  I am evoking the powers of SM to rectify.

Not with me. And believe me, I just tried to see if that would work, nope. I get a jump error in the log.

My mistake then, was fixed ages ago.
