So close, yet so far. I've updated the file yet again. This time the sounds and coal bombs work as expected.

Now all that's left? Gibs! Gibs! Gibs!
I've got 'em but I can't those damned gibs to work! The ship explodes and it vanishes! The gibs just don't want to show up. What am I doing wrong now?

Is it because I put the ship into Superluminal, added the gibs, then saved it as another file, then copied the text from those documents into the previous file? Did I leave out the Gibs somewhere in the process or is it another file to which Superluminal doesn't package with the ship?

EDIT: I think I forgot to put an underscore in the gib names. Going to test it.
EDIT 2: Yup it works. Now I need to make the pieces fly.

Alright! It's all done!
The ship is ready to go! It's got gibs, it's got working Hot Coal Bombs with unique sounds.
And for those pesky automated ships, I just tacked on a Dual Laser, because why not?

The working ship is in this thread:
