Thank you
Meridian!!!
That got it.
All research entries are now loading without crashing.
Now all that remains is the mystery of why an Aquanaut equipped with a loaded
Hydrogen Rifle appears to be holding nothing.
When unloaded it uses the rifle's own
HandOb sprite set without a problem. However once the weapon is loaded the rifle isn't switching from
HandOb 136 to
128 for some reason.
I thought it could be that I'd failed to correctly define
HandOb: 128, but that does not appear to be the case as if I change
STR_HR_HYDROGEN_RIFLE's
handSprite: 136 directly to
128 the loaded rifle's sprite set does display.
(But only when the weapon is unloaded)The
tags: NEW_HANDOB_FOR_WEAPON: 128 appears to be having a problem. Is there anything about
TFTD that would have changed how the
HandObs are being rendered vs
X-COM: UFO Defense that could effect
Ohartenstein23's script?

I've used this script with several items before in
X-COM: UFO Defense and there hasn't been a problem.
