How would you log your own mod? (Someone once replied about)

from Sins Forums

Although the person never answerd because they are retarded I am guessing who cannot be human. Anyhoos, I am looking for an a simple answer to my problem and that is I modded a frigate class ship by adding three type of weapons and now after every time I take a group of 5 frigates and destroy afew targets like 2, the game stops responding. Even says this under Task manager, I run the game in window mode so I could still gain access to it.

Here is the Code for the frigate, I also use modding grahics "SolarFlair_03" & "SolarFlair_06" with mods of models "Miranda_Starship_Mod", Code:

Keep this in mind - I unload the mods, and run the game normal, it runs fine. I know it has something to do with the new weapons added to the ship due to that I had replaced the ship back to normal specs and then the rest of the mods run fine up until I edit the ship to add more weapons. (Almost as if the game does not accept new weapon setups but only the default).

Do all three Weapons fire? Are ther hardpoints(or however they are called) for the three weapons on the model?
Reply #4 from Sins Forums Top
Yes, all three fires. Keep in mind, I destroyed the targeted ships and then the game stop responding after the ships was destroyed afew seconds after. I do recall there are hard points on the ship but I do not recall how to per say look at them yet or how that would effect the code even judging that the weapons did fire and destroyed its target.

Hmm, there is no Frigate with more than one weapon... May be you could try replacing one of the capital ships with your ship.
May be there is a way to make a log-file while playing so you can see if there are any accumulating errors?
I've read the whole blueprint of yours and couldn't make out an obvious error. But even one misplaced blanc is too much for Sins :(
