Default Re: Possible Bug?

I tried out random generation for the new Versions of the Rage and the Vaxin at 2000 points and observed the following:

Vaxin - should be Advanced Storage and Organic, with adjustments to characteristics that reduce the total points enough to allow for both advanced traits. Actual result was Advanced Storage only, but characteristics modified to allow for the Organic.

Rage = should be Propulsion and Advanced Storage with adjustments to characteristics. Actual result was Propulsion and Advanced Storage (using up all points) but no adjustments to characteristics at all.

In both cases, I had moved all of the less-than-100% characteristics to the beginning of the list to allow room for those characteristics that were greater than 100%. I believe that, as SJ said, the advanced characteristics are applied first. If they cost more than the available points, only the first ones that total less than or equal to the available are used. Then, if all the points are used, the general characteristics are not looked at, at all.
