Vagar Artillery Frigate Thread - R.E.A.R.M. - The Unofficial Classic HW 2 Expansion mod for Homeworld 2

OK I realise I may be having a major *Derp* here but heres my problem. After playing with this mod I can't seem to build any of the drones (e.g. the mine trap), even after researching everything on the tech tree and adding the module to the ship. When I go to the build menu for the artillery frigate the drones are greyed out. What am I doing wrong, am I missing something obvious???

Please help.

Mine traps are set to have a pretty low PopulationCap, so you can't just spam them everywhere, you have to think a little more carefully about when/where you use them.
Can you build ANY at all?

~Also, the state the Mod is in is kinda being changed and tweaked fairly often, what version are you using?

The easiest solution though would just be patience;
Pouk's working hard to get version 003c out, which should be a lot more how he wants it, and you shouldn't have this issue (what ever it is) with that version.

I think you missed the point of my problem. I have not built any because I cant work out how to do it.

While you've said you've Researched everything, have you definitely Researched "Rocket Pods"? This is required for Mine Traps at least.

I may not be the best to help you with this anyway, it's been ages since I used version 003b.
(I'm trying to help Pouk with testing, so am lucky enough to have a later version, in which lots of things are different.)

Like I said though; just wait, in time Pouk'll Release the latest public release, and you shouldn't have any problems with that.
Pouk is the ONLY Mod Dev, I'm just trying to help you.

(p.s, please at least try to spell Vaygr correctly too, it's not that hard.)

Ok thanks for your response, sorry my spelling is offensive to you (You knew what I meant). As for the research I mean there was nothing left to research, I did the lot and it still didnt allow me to bulid them.

I guess my obsession about their correct spelling is getting to be well known.

You need to:
-build the drone or probe facility on the Artillery frigate (depends on how it is in the old 0.0.3b)
-go into the utility research and at the very bottom research the rocket pods (BTW was it in the brackets because it's an unussual name? It can changed...)

Or maybe it really is, as Tadamir said, the issue of 0.0.3b. Just wait for a while and you'll get better version where it definitelly works.

No don't change the Rocket Pods name Pouk!

It works fine for a name; I just added the brackets as emphasis, to clarify what I was talking about.

I was talking about the Rockets Pods research specifically because I once had a similar problem to what it sounded like Rich2kuk was experiencing and it was just because I hadn't noticed that research down at the bottom of the list.

It's all fine though, I don't think anything should be changed there.
