Reforger 1.9 release preparation — 2026-11-05

Later update: a separate addon using same-path script replacement resolves the RHS compile blockers. Native faction/rescue checks and a separate WCS BMP tire initialization fix now pass; both local addons are packed but unpublished. See the subsequent compatibility evidence. The failures below describe the earlier attempts, not the latest patch state.

Game and Workbench both completed updating to 1.9.0.37. The frozen current source passes the full repository suite. The production dependency graph cannot compile: installed RHS Status Quo 0.16.5237 overrides SetAuthor(int) while vanilla 1.9 expects SetAuthor(int, bool isGM = false). The live official RHS Workshop changelog still lists 0.16.5237 for game 1.8.0.13.

The proposed base-class compatibility overload was tested only in a disposable copy and rejected by the native compiler. It has been removed; no workaround or dependency removal was applied to the repository.

With RHS/WCS/BMP unloaded only in a diagnostic copy, the complete owned GameLib, Game and WorkbenchGame modules compile against 1.9, retaining the Parachute Framework dependency. That run cannot validate gameplay: required RHS faction resources are missing and the runner times out. All native runs used private muted displays and disposable prefixes, with cleanup confirmed and installed dependency/source hashes unchanged.

The release remains unpublished and unpushed. Candidate version 0.0.141 is provisional; the last confirmed published version is 0.0.140. After compatible dependencies become available, rerun the full native compile, escape route and packed startup checks before publishing. Record the successful upload with tools/workshop_changelog.py --published (using --manifest if published from a private profile), then commit/push and verify Drone.

A later diagnostic tried replacing the RHS method directly from a downstream modded class. Compilation still rejected the original RHS signature; this adapter was also removed. The official Dev listing was checked and still targets 1.8. Public development logs show work toward 1.9, but do not establish an available stable update.
