I had -

*DEBUG ERROR: *** Unable to find required tech Battleship for ship type BattleTransport. ***

I reinstalled and its a different game

It really is worth an uninstall and reinstall

There is historically a problem with some upgrades not clearing old files etc so I have read that a reinstall can fix

I just can't imagine the Drengin CM messing up that badly though. This is definitely a real concern.

I'm not familira with what icon24 is.

Steevodeevo's debug error message is easily corrected by editing the file "battletransport.ship" and changing the line that reads:
======
Tech_Requirement "Battleship"
=========
to:
Tech_Requirement "Battleship1"
==========
There is no tech "battleship", hence the error message.

I don't believe the icon24 message is a fault of the DGM. I have been seeing this message for many builds now.
