Jim, it can't take any more!
 

Or something.

Basically I did something which I had a feeling it wasn't the smart thing to do, but I honestly thought that if I didn't end the phase with more than 10K I wouldn't have a problem/get a glitch.


I was repairing units at the end of a battle of a PBEM campaign and decided to delete some of my damaged units.
Well, the money returned kept increasing till my points passed 10000, 11xxx, and then then next deletion made the points reach.....-49000 (something) Obviously I couldn't repair anything with it (not that I would keep it if I could)


I short of brought it on my own lol, but I thought to report it anyway.

That will likely be one of the variables rolling over its MAXINT, therefore going to negative numbers. I probably missed a local accumulator and it's still set at the original smaller SSI original type.

It'll be sorted together with the buglet where you get the full face value of a unit returned, even if it is damaged or totally destroyed.


Cheers

Thank you. Programming is a ***** some times. You can't live with it, you can't carpet bomb it.
