Crash is due to the mod referencing to TUNING.SHADOWWAXWELL_LIFETIME which no longer exists in DST.

 

It used to be equal to total_day_time * 2.5, which is equal to 1200.

 

So for a hotfix just replace the instances of it with 1200 and it'll be good to go.

 

 

Reason for this tuning constant being removed is due to how the shadow minions of Waxwell no longer being a time-based thing.

So basically i replace every inst.lifetime = (TUNING.SHADOWWAXWELL_LIFETIME * 2) with inst.lifetime = (TUNING.SHADOWWAXWELL_LIFETIME * 1200)?

 

edit: Nevermind! figured it out. Thank you so much!!

inst.lifetime = (TUNING.SHADOWWAXWELL_LIFETIME * 2) -> inst.lifetime = (1200 * 2)

 

But you got 'er, so it's all good.
