Galaxy in Conflict - SAIL Uninstall Patch

Description
What this does:
This patch prevents SAIL from crashing if you have a GiC SAIL mission active in your SAIL terminal. GiC only has two SAIL missions with which it uses them as a form of failsafe to prevent softlocking due to the way it handles missions.

More specifically, this mod re-adds the SAIL mission parameters into the terminal so that the game does not crash from an "invalid" mission. Attempting to warp to the GiC mission with this patch (and without GiC, obviously) will simply reject the player and place them back on their ship, as the actual mission map itself no longer exists.

For obvious reasons, do not use GiC and the uninstall patch together. There are conflicting assets which will cause errors.

--- --- ---

Removing the GiC SAIL mission entirely is a two-stage process, with this patch being an immediate solution to the less tech-savvy users who do not mind seeing the old GiC missions appearing in their SAILs and only want to quickly return usability to the terminal.

Those who wish to remove the GiC SAIL mission entirely should refer to the tech guide below which involves "surgically removing" the code that defines the mission's availability. Once the GiC missions have been properly excised, this mod may be safely removed.

After you've unpacked the player file, search for "aiState" - then change parameters "availableMissions" and "completedMission" as appropriate, by deleting the missions with a "gic_" prefix. Follow the instructions as shown in this guide to re-pack the player file, drop it back into /storage/player/ and all should be good from there.
