In the BSG core, I have changed some of the ships that once had missiles to having no missiles. And after I did that, they stopped working in DN.

The ships are as following:

Colonial Advanced Scout (DM, non DM), Colonial Scout, Cylon advanced scout (DM, non DM)

All were able to mount Anti-Fighter Missile 1 (USed to be Seeker 1) and SRM Dumbfire 1. Those missiles were removed and then the bug started.

I tried to put the missiles back on and it still crashed on start of a DM game.
I tried deleting the ships and it still it crashed on start of DM.

The ships work fine in Conquest mode, but as soon as I turn off development, it crashes. The server doesn't crash - Just Allegiance.

I did not notice this bug until recently (I'm currently on backup number 101) and I found when it started and it was at backup 45. If anyone could help me fix this in the most recent version it would be very helpful

Mmmm, Sounds like you screwed up, Check the default loadouts on the ships, this sometimes causes issues in game, especially if you deleted a missile which was a "default" loadout on the ship, the default loadout will have "error_Unknown_object" in the place of where the item was under the default loadout. ALso make sure DM ships have the DM tag.

DM ships do have the DM tag, and the loadouts are correct.

I have not deleted any items, as a few of them screw up the core if you do, so I simply set them to a pre that isn't def'd by anything.

I was told by Bard on the RT IRC to specify it was the 'ICE Missile Bug' as someone knows an easy way of fixing it.

I've spent 2 days looking at it, and I've used several utitilites. I've found the differences, but it cannot be changed with ICE.

Which version of it? I know where it starts, so I could send you the one just before it and just after it. Or I could send you the current one. Hell, I could probably send you all of them.
