Morale bug/feature in MUM and UM5?

[Ovarwa]

Hi,

Not sure this is the right place for this:

In both MUM and UM5, installed from the current top ten installer, passive morale boosts provided by structures, eg Private Farms, only provide morale when the structure is powered. Is this change intentional?

Repros easily. Build buildings, don't power --> no morale after turn. Apply power and morale effects begin.

Anyway,

Yes, default behavior is a code error, disabled features shouldn't affect morale.

Plus you had to scrap structures with extra morale penalties (e.g. prison mine) if they were temporary idle.

Hi,

Thanks! Speaking of code errors, was the bug about ships moving backward or otherwise mangling or ignoring their movement orders ever resolved?

Tangentially,

No, but I think that glitch is triggered by save scumming i.e. reloading saved games and re-deploying and/or redirecting task forces or other changes.

Ah. I do sometimes save during the middle of a turn and come back, and rather than meticulously calculate research to avoid losing rp when a tech is discovered, I find it easier to reload to adjust %alloctions, which I do regularly since there are no other human players.

Thanks,
