Negative devices bug

Post by Heclapar »

There seems to be a bug concerning artillery pieces that can make negative devices appear in unit TOEs and prints devices out of nothing. I have reproduced it with three
different units and it seems to be consistent. How to do so:

1) Find an artillery LCU with disabled devices
2) Click the detach disablements button
3) Remerge the entire thing into the parent LCU
4) Despite the screen showing a correct device subtraction, the disablements depot will be left with (-2) negative devices, and the parent unit will receive an extra 2 for every affected slot at least with the units I have tested.
5) These negative devices can recover and be moved into other units and seem to confer negative AV, supply use, etc.

Unless I am misunderstanding something about the logistics system antimatter devices shouldn't be a thing :P .

Yep, I sure seem to have created a bug there. I will try to replicate on my end. If I can do so this should be quick to fix.
