I am also getting error 14 when clicking Notes on a supporting character. I haven't seen the one that includes 41. I am also now finding errors when opening or creating NPCs:Code:[ERROR] window: Control (disciplinehelp) anchoring to an undefined control (icon) in windowclass (list_entry_npcdisciplines)
I think the complaint may be that the NPC list is too simplistic for a GM who adds "NPCs" that are as fully fleshed-out as PCs, because the difference between a generic "stat block" and a supporting character is quite significant. But I think it's a matter of semantics, or perhaps making things more clear in the UI. I don't know that anything needs to change in regards to NPCs, it should perhaps just be more clear that a GM can take control of a player-type character. Most "villain" NPCs are presented in the book as stat blocks, so I'm not sure the NPC window needs expanding. The thing is, though, more NPCs in STA, both by design with the supporting character system and in general, tend to be fleshed-out characters due the story-driven nature of the game.
I do think that supporting characters should be something in the party sheet, rather than connected to from a specific player character: rules as written, any player can control any support character in different game sessions. And it would be a useful tool for a GM who wants to add a bunch of supporting characters as the crew of a starship who have more to them than just a 'stat block's' worth of numbers.

Please help, what am I doing wrong? I am playing with the system right now, trying to work up a new ship. I have the ship created, and neither the existing weapons that came from the "frame", nor the ones I added show any damage dice, and I can't find a way to change this. I loaded new weapons, I tried the existing. They all show 0 on the Tactical officer's sheet. I can roll the attack dice from the character, but not the damage. Attachment 55088

Please disregard. Whatever I did, I am now not having the same issue. Perhaps my order of loading things was wrong.
MOD: Moved to bug report thread.
Pushed a hotfix for your report.
So I'm putting in a couple of ships from the Alpha Quadrant book and I can no longer enter anything in the Description field. Everything on the front page works fine, just the desc page.
Also on NPC's the Disciplines turn to zero when you lock the npc but change back if you unlock it. But if you close the npc and reopen all the disciplines are zero locked or unlocked.
