Author Topic: 0.95aRC12 Initial Resource Capacity Off After Battle, Mission CR Low After Refit  (Read 497 times)

Found two minor issues, one I've seen throughout 0.95a up to RC12, and another I've been seeing since 0.91a:

In 0.95a RC12, immediately after battle, I hit Take All and the initial cargo limit is slightly higher than what it is after I control click to get rid of the excess. For example, I beat a large bounty, did not recover any ships, and my cargo was at 4967/5114. Since I expected it to be inaccurately high, I control clicked on the stack of metals, and the cargo limit dropped down to 4916.

Often when I loot past my capacity, I have to control click twice to get back to capacity, once to get to the initial limit which is higher than actual, and a second time to get to the actual capacity. This is with the Industry 1 Skill that gives up to 50% more capacity for cargo/fuel/people, which I suspect is related. I have had it happen with fuel before but it did not happen this time, and I'm not sure if this ever happened with crew/marines.


For the Mission CR Issue (Dire Straits and The Last Hurrah were great!), refitting ships before playing the mission can result in a couple ships with lower than normal CR. It's usually a 15% or so drop, even when I did a full strip and manually refit everything, but usually affects just 1-2 ships, and I tend to refit every single one. Rarely, a ship will have reduced CR even without refits. I saw this a lot in 0.91a, and I still see it in 0.95a RC12.

Thank you for the reports, I've got them both logged to look at now.

Thanks David! I just destroyed a pirate station with no additional defenders (so no possible ships to recover-I lost no ships but lost 6 crew from fighter losses) and the initial cargo capacity afterwards was 5114 or so, then dropped back down to 5040 after I jettisoned a fuel overage. So it might not have to do with recoverable ships. On the other hand, I do not recall seeing it happen from salvaging debris fields.


Okay, different pirate fight now:

Initial Capacity after battle capacity:
5199 Cargo
3465 Crew/Marines
1761 Fuel

Capacity after moving some metal back into the "Salvaged" Screen:
5040 Cargo
3465 Crew/Marines
1995 Fuel

So cargo capacity went back down to normal, and fuel capacity went back up to normal.

Weird! Thank you for the follow-up: ah, you wouldn't happen to have a savegame where this happened to you handy would you? Might be a stretch, but maybe we could get something from it.

 If you want to stick it on some filehost somewhere, that's handy, or you can send it to fractalsoftworks [at] gmail [dot] com w/ a note pointing to this thread, that'd be super cool.

I sent over an email with a save before a fight where that happens, the save after the fight, screenshots from the fight, and screenshots from the previous examples. Hope it helps!

Got the save, thank you! Will hopefully be able to check this out in the next couple of days.
