I've been trying to make the Galactia uing the FTL Ship Creator tool, though every time I try to attach a weapon to the ship it crashes, plus I can't export a .FTL, I'm outta ideas now, what should I do?

If you'd like help, more details would be very helpful. The exact program/version you're using, the OS you're using, any error messages you may see/get, and a more detailed description what exact changes you're trying to make.

From that application's page, it would seem as though there are outstanding issues. I'd recommend first trying this editor and see if you have similar issues. You can look in the blueprints.xml.append that was generated and see if you can find the error in the XML, but in the meantime, it might be easier to redo it with an editor that more people have had luck getting working.

Thanks for the advice, I actually did try redoing it in that earlier, only it resulted in the game crashing from the .ftl I made, then, after some tweaking, it got the room layout, but not the ship base.

Ah, sorry to hear that. I'd recommend posting a comment in the thread of whichever ship editor you used - I've never personally used them, so I'm unable to help, and from your thread's title, it's not immediately obvious that it's a ship builder bug, rather than a generic help question.

Well, I didn't see it as a ship editor bug at first, thought I was just doing it wrong, I've even tried manually packing the .ftl, it just crashed, thanks for the help, I'll probably try again when the editor is more advanced.
So far I've got http://i.imgur.com/Icg5P.png
Which should, in theory work, but neither the .xml and .txt with the image files compressed to a .ftl or the automatically packaged FTL work.

Gotcha. My guess is that it is a ship editor bug, so at a minimum, the creator would probably like to know what the error you found was, so they can fix it

The crazy part is that I just got it working, only now it just won't let me attach weapons, lovely.

If you just want to get your ship working, you can post the actual generated XML/TXT in code tags to the forums, and someone may be able to help with that.
