Air Designer Improved - FIXED!

Description
The Air Designer Improved by SpatialX (link = https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2884019213 Credits to him for making the orginal mod ) is a mod that makes huge changes to the air designer but it hasnt been updated since it released back in November. A common problem was that the game was unstable and would easily crash.

(This is the only major problem I have fixed btw)

I have managed by adding a few scripts to prevent the game from crashing. Since I dont know, yet, how to make the AI use the plane designer I added the planes that every country owned before BBA released (That means they are normal planes which cant be designed) in order to make the game a little more balanced.

Any focus / event / decision that creates an aircraft design will create non usable design (Because they miss the engine). You will have to add the engine on the design in order to use it. I am planning to slowly manage and fix this problem but for now my goal was to make the game playable.

This mod will not work with any mod that add plane modules (such as engines and guns), any mod that changed the air tech tree or any mod that changes stuff in airplanes in general

I will try to keep this mod up to date if the original doesnt come back. For now, enjoy !

I am still looking into it, but I cant promise anything. I cant find a problem and the code seems fine working to me

So is there going to be a fix coming with compatibility for RT56? Currently heavy fighters keep crashing the game.

@SpatialX thanks a lot man. The reason of the crashing was a missing script that would verify the existance of the modules. I really appriciate your words but there are still a lot of bugs that I havent manage to solve such as planes not moving between airports. I just had to add 1 script in order to fix the crashing while you work hard on this. You may not have the time but I believe when you find it you are the one who can expand this mod

@MetaDev, I must say, good job, you suceed were I failed (mainly because I had a huge spike of homework). I am truly sorry you had to read my mess of a code.

Technically, if you managed to find the reason of the crash (I strongly suspect the aircraft role module to be the cause) you could add back true aircraft design (i still have the event doing that on my computer, and I think it made the game crash because of those module)

If you have questions on how some things work, contact me.

@MetaDev, someone requested you take a look at Expanded Tank Designer but failed to provide a link

This is the mod they were talking about. There is also a RT56 version.

The primary issue with this mod other than not being updated to BBA, is that it removes tank roles (the drop down list for tank destroyer, light tank, self propelled artillery ect.) so that's where you should look first.

A RT56 compatible version of this air designer would also be greatly appreciated, though I'm sure it's not a priority.
