ERM & SE Compatibility Addon

Official ERM compatibility addon for space exploration. As SE is not based on the space-age, making compatibility in core mod will likely be messy. Hence this mod will take care of all compatibility changes between it and ERM.

Notices: Some ERM core functions have not properly tested. If you found any anomaly with SE, please report it to my discord with your save.

Known Issues:

• Trim does not work on planet with zerg, protoss or red-army spawns. SE's force protection doesn't consider ERM forces as enemy force.
  • Workaround: Change Zone.trim_surface() in mods/space-exploration_0.7.37/space-exploration/scripts/zone.lua:3341 to
  • "if game.forces[force_name] and not SystemForces.is_system_force(force_name) and not string.find(force_name, "enemy", nil, 1) then"
  • Issue reported on SE discord: https://discord.com/channels/419526714721566720/1447299704990859274
• Threat level is not compatible with ERM as it only manages "enemy" force.
• Any feature from SE that only check against "enemy" force are likely not going to work on ERM custom forces.
