[NOVA] Wierd bug in Shipyard and Outfitter

I have encountered a very strange bug while developing an addon for nova. Here is a picture.

It is like this in the outfitter and shipyard. I have not edited EV Nova (the file) just my plugin. Didnt add any ditl or dlog file types to it. If someone can help me out, that would be great. Dont tell me to reinstall, ive tryed it and it still doesnt work. :frown:

I didn't know Nova ran on OS 1. I bet black and white ships look really good. 😉

When did this first start happening, Travis? Does it happen in full-screen mode? What happens if trash your Nova preferences file?

What does you plug actually contain? (yes I know no dlog, but there are things in it...)

Does it keep doing it without the plug?

Then, when you said you reinstalled, did you really reinstall? I don't mean any offense, but sometimes reunpacking the thing does no replace some files, so go ahead, save your pilots and plug, and wipe the folder clean, and then reinstall. If that still doesn't work, then trash every pref and license you can find (in your user folder in OSX), and then reinstall and relaunch (you may have to reenter your code, but test before without it entered, you will be faster able to tell if it has worked). I know this seems rather extreme, but your problem seems so.

If you're happy running an older version then I guess that's fine but if there is actually a bug in 1.0.8 then it needs to be fixed. The best way to do that is for you to get 1.0.8 again and work with the people here to see if you can find out exactly what is causing the problem. (you can still keep 1.0.5 for when you want to play the game properly)
