Thank you for looking into these.
The shipyard tasking from the fleet window was a minor annoyance and easily worked around by pulling the ships from the shipyard window instead. Having the fix from the fleed window will help.
I hadn't realized how much manual intervention you'd been doing for your campaign. Which makes my adding a new tech from my side even more difficult to work out the mechanics for. Many because I don't have a new enough version of Access on my home machines and have to take a copy of the database to work to make any chances. Doable, but slow.
One thing I'm going to try is setting the crated to type 2 instead of type 3 and see if your code will handle that. This is do to the prep task not recigizing as valid when setting the task. If that doesn't work then I'll try do other ideas I've had to get around the need for so much manual intervention.
I really need to get a newer version of Access for home. Now where did I put that money tree?
I'm not asking for you to make coding changes to SA. I fully understand that your focus is Aurora. I've been sort of keeping up on what your doing with it and like a lot of the funtionality that's been built into it. I've been sticking with 3rdR since I'm familiar with it enough that I can pick where I left off, sometimes months later, and can move forward without to much trouble.
