I got an error trying to deploy the first spidertron from SELF to ARRIVAL. It's the first entity to be placed on ARRIVAL.

The mod Orbital Vehicle Deployment (2.9.0) caused a non-recoverable error.
Please report this error to the mod author.

Hello, will look at this now

Could I ask you to share your save if possible?

I don't know how the mod tried to place a ghost equipment - however I have uploaded a fix

Let me know if you continue to have issues

Hello, I have a similar issue here is the message the game provided:

The mod Orbital Vehicle Deployment (2.9.2) caused a non-recoverable error.
Please report this error to the mod author.

here is the save (https://uploadnow.io/f/Mr0Yf3j) and here is what I put into it: 2 roboports, 47 solar panels, 1 mechanical leg, 3 construction bots.

weird, didn't pre-plan the bot's loadout and it worked

Hello Luke, I appreciate you sharing your save, I'm going to have a look at it now

Finally worked this out, you can manage equipment grids remotely if the vehicle has been placed before.

When this mod tries to add the equipment once the spider lands, it tries and fails to add ghost equipment causing the crash.

Also, the scout-o-tron equipment grid is limited to 6x4, so 47 solar panels wouldn't fit. You can always send down more and construction bots can move equipment in / out of the grid.

Did you upload from an older TFMG version pre 0.4.0?

But anyway, finally fixed, new version will be released soon
