Patch notes:

https://xwvassal.wordpress.com/2020/08/10/x-wing-vassal-module-v9-0-0-wave-7-8-sideslip-4k-compatibility/

Mu0n:

• Droid Tri-fighter: added ship + dial + entry in xwd2

• HMP Droid Gunship: added ship + dial + entry in xwd2

• Jango Fett’s Slave-I: added ship + dial + entry in xwd2

• Nimbus-Class V-Wing: added ship + dial + entry in xwd2

• LAAT/i gunship: added ship + dial + entry in xwd2

• Eta-2 actis: added ship + dial + entry in xwd2

• TIE/rb Heavy: added ship + dial + entry in xwd2

• Xi-Class Light Shuttle: added ship + dial + entry in xwd2

• New purple maneuvers added (tallon roll 2) for the eta-2 actis’ dial

• Added 12 buttons in the (until now) unused ship mouse interface ‘page’ (leftmost button) with a HMP silhouette page button; only shows up for small ships, including 6 new images under photoshop (note: I didn’t do the original illustrator design nor am I a designer, Jomblr did it)

• Calculated the translations and rotations for all 12 final positions for these movements

• Calculated the translations and rotations for all 12 template usage while this move is performed for obstacle overlap detection purposes

• Calculated the translations and rotations for all 12 collision aide templates when a ship to ship overlap occurs with sideslips (ie when ‘c’ is pressed)

• Calculated the partial movement when an autobump sideslip resolution has to happen and backtrack the ship

Vassal v3.3.2 (and 3.3.0 and 3.3.1) Bug Squashing:

• 4k monitor users can now enjoy normal sized (instead of tiny) java user interface buttons and menus while ALSO not mess up autorange + ship mouse interface + tallon rolls + various custom mouse interface that were added in the x-wing module.

• CTRL-Left click to bring out the ship mouse interface was bugged (it brought up the old style windows-right-click menu). Alt-left click was added in windows; which translates to option-left-click for mac users. Only the rightmost alt or option key works for windows and mac users respectively for some reason.

Mac User test:

• Helped test out the new alt-left click to bring up the ship mouse interface with his Mac environment under Vassal v3.3.2

This is great work. Thank you.

Ah, the update is out! Thanks! 👍

I just wanted to check whether or not the maneuvering works as intended and installed the new module (you remember?), making sure that both Vassal and Java are up to date. The content checker says the same.

But... I can't spawn even a single ship. 😕 No matter if I use the YASB, the FFG or the internal squad builder. I followed the instructions provided by the X-wing module, but only a message "Attempt at spawning a list from a squad URL" appears, nothing else. When sending the squad to escrow, the spawn button is still greyed out.

Is there a step-by-step manual explaining how to build and spawn a squad? Just wanting to make sure I'm not doing anything wrong...

EDIT:

Got it working! Seems the assets weren't processed completely after checking contents. So far, so good.

However, my old issue with the turn and straight maneuvers not working still persists. Only moving manually works. Does anybody encounter the same? Anyone got an idea what to try?
