I have no idea what you mean lol, I wasn’t aware robotic cops spawned on the lab, if you’re seeing robotic cops, perhaps you shouldn’t smash pawn store or bank windows, they’ll spawn eyebots, and eyebots taking photos of you spawn robotic cops.

Plus you could always make sure you have a seatbelt and use a good ol’ truck ram or exposives route to get in.

That’s happened to me as well, almost every time I’ve done the lab patient challenge lately. It’s also been immensely helpful a couple times when I was able to hack them.

You know, in comparison to those other times when i made the attempt and they shot me farther than my hopes and dreams ever could because I was an idiot and stood in their field of view while making the attempt.

@dissociativity ok i have quite crappy news for you, i’ve checked _ **all** _ of my 167 mods and **EXACTLY** _PK\_rebalancing_ causes segmentation error upon reaching `Items` when loading mods, every other mod works flawlessly except for negligible errors but yours causes segmentation fault

I’m not sure why, i will ask peeps on discord to see what can be done, i have no idea why, honestly, but it’s definitely PK\_rebalancing problem, we’ll have to do some research on this

@dissociativity , @ScarPan, here is a fix for it - place this file - _ **drop.json** _ in **PKs\_Rebalancing-master/items** , overwrite the old _ **drop.json** _ file

[https://mega.nz/file/qV9lwJjR#aeZtLLAh8AOL6fPQQqzMud2Gz8-2J6z09GcXN9ynjQc](https://mega.nz/file/qV9lwJjR#aeZtLLAh8AOL6fPQQqzMud2Gz8-2J6z09GcXN9ynjQc)

The problem was in the old format of Royal\_Jelly action\_use function

Thank you for the help! I will test it out now.

Edit: Yep, it worked. 10569 with PK’s Rebalancing and didn’t experience the segmentation fault crash.

Looking in the jsons I can’t really see what’s wrong with it, looks correct and on par with vanilla to me, how are you getting the mod, are you downloading a master zip file from the github as you should be doing for experimental builds?

Edit: tested and it definitely doesn’t give me that error in in new builds.

I don’t use nor support any mod packs or the launcher, I only resolve bugs with this, and conflicts with other mods from their souce.

the problem is you using the pesky launcher instead of up to date mods lol, this was probably fixed months ago

this mod is maintained to support experimental, there is a build in releases in my github aimed at 0.E stable, I don’t support any sources outside of my github master build, pressing download zip.

have you tried the latest experimental build of cataclysm?

If I find a solution I’ll PR it in.
