Fixes various issues in Mass Effect: Andromeda left unresolved by the developers. If you know of any bugs that have not been fixed yet please report them in as much detail as possible and I'll see if I can come up with a fix.

Unless mentioned otherwise all fixes work retroactively.

If you have started the quest "Task: Gone Dark" before installing version 1.03 I recommend finishing the stage "Locate and scan Resistance bugs in kett camps" before installing this.

Compatibility:

If you use my Multiplayer Powers in Singleplayer mod load it after this mod.

Some fixes require multiple files to work, if another mod overwrites only part of the fix it may leave the game pointing at records that no longer exist, causing it to freeze or crash. If you experience any issues check your load order for conflicts.
