Troubleshooting

Confirm all manifest dependencies are started before helicam.
Check the supplied start-order note above; resources absent from server.cfg need an explicit decision before enabling.
If database queries fail, import the consolidated Base SQL and any resource-local SQL listed above.
If the UI fails, verify the resource's NUI files and ui_page when one is declared.
