Not related to anything you did, but the collapsable fuel tank needs to show the 1/100 tonnage used when empty so it can be accounted for.

It only takes up room in a cargo bay, and throws a Fuel tab error if you don't have room for it. The bay deducts the ship's space.
Cargo tab shows you the empty volume correctly if you change the toggle to empty.
It cannot exist without a bay, unlike the supplies that are not bay dependent.

And right on top of that, I would like to request that the humble armory be broken into 3 entries: Crew /25 supplied per, Marines, /5 supplied, and Battledress Morgue (variant armory from Mercenaries), 5 Marines armored, same costs as normal armories. (BD supplied seperately)

Do you have a page number for the reference on that last one?

And of course real life gums up the works. I'll root it down as soon as I can rub some time togther

NP. I scoured the books and couldn't find it, so I hoped you had a clue. Got a couple of days before I put out another update and the other two are implemented, so it isn't an emergency.

and I give up. i know I saw it at one time. Way back when. it described a support unit for battledress, I can not find it to save my life. I will house rule it's existance and just add it to the Narrative Description. Sigh.

I found this in Specialist Forces. Was it what you were remembering, @Spartan159?

Those racks... 20kg and 24kg... what are they made of? Cardboard?
Will implement the Base Support Facility in lieu of the Battledress Morgue. Can always insert it in later if anyone finds it.

Without swearing to it, I'm pretty sure that's it, thanks for saving my sanity (What little I have left is a terrible thing to waste)

As an idea stolen borrowed from Geir's robot sheet, what if the skill cells in the robot area were dropdown with a selection of skills paired with a skill number dropdown cell?

was just playing with mineral refineries and smelters, power was affecting totals but tonnage was not.

In the I can't win category, now I'm getting invisible additional tons used on the 2nd options page, like a few 1000 tons. def. using most recent version, re-down loaded. Taking a break.

Could you post it here in a zip file? I'd be happy to take a look.
