Default Re: Retrofit Bug During PBW Games

I had the same problem with unmothballing in Paranoia. I finally decided I really didn't want the ships anyway and scrapped them. I just figured it was user error, although I tried for nearly a game year to get it to work. It was probably ~25 turns ago, though, so I can't reproduce it.

I've experiance Both of these problems. The retrofitting problem fixes itself the next turn as explained below. But I've had the unmothballing thing very rarely, it's happened enough that I try to avoid mothballing sometimes.

I imagine that pulling the design out of a build que to edit it could cause problems for prior retrofit orders.
This isn't a problem for me. The thing I like about this particular workaround is that it can be used for a newly created design and you don't have to edit it. Once you retrofit a ship to a particular design you can't edit it anymore anyway.
