<queqiao-> ⟨Ultravine⟩ Hello, this may not be strictly RO but any chance I could get some help with principia please? I am currently trying to install the Beyond Home patch for Principia however I am unsure where to place the file / what to save the paste bin file as, I have checked the internet including Principia page, Beyond Home page and the paste bin but the only information I can find is a raw paste bin config. (The game does not crash, an error...
<queqiao-> ... is simply printed when a save is launched).
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ I am not familiar with Beyond Home, let alone its patch, but cursory googling seems to show an MM patch file, so just drop it into GameData I suppose?
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ (I don’t know why they don’t distribute it as part of the mod, since it’s gated on the presence of Principia by the NEEDS clause…)
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ Note that you need to create a new save once you add the patch.
<queqiao-> ⟨Ultravine⟩ so far I have tried : GameData, Principia folder, BeyondHome config folder and as part of kopernicus config, I am using a fresh save but I haven't been creating new saves with every attempt, I have also only tried saving as .cfg for beyond home
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ All of those folders should work, but
<queqiao-> > I haven't been creating new saves with every attemptThere’s your problem.
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ Once you create a save, Principia remembers the solar system with which it was created. You need a new save to get the patched solar system.
<queqiao-> ⟨Ultravine⟩ thank you, I will try creating new saves
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ (and it should be a .cfg file, too.)
<queqiao-> ⟨Ultravine⟩ Update: A fresh save plus saving as .cfg in GameData worked, thank you very much for the assistance
