V4.3.0 Aircraft screen - armour option has disappeared

[Emily_F]

I've just built this phantom but the alloy armour (all armour in fact) has disappeared from the options.

I think aircraft armor is not correctly set to "unlimited" (as it should be since you can no longer build it). I think maybe the game is allocating you a "free" one for each aircraft you build, since I just built my third Gemini and noticed I can equip one Gemini with more than one Armor, but then I don't have any available at all for the other one.  Notice the "1" quantity in the upper-right of the armor box (this correctly adjusts quantity as you mount/dismount from aircraft). It should show "∞" for unlimited.

Thanks for the bug report! I'll bring this up with the others and we'll get it fixed

Did you start this campaign in 4.0.0, or is it a fresh one? I tried to fix this bug in 4.1.0 or 4.2.0 but I'm not sure if the fix will have applied to existing campaigns.

If I start a fresh campaign the armour does seem to be available for the Angel in unlimited quantities.

I did start my current playthrough in v4.0.0. I'll assume it's fixed for future campaigns but not existing ones.

I think I started it in 4.0.0 or 4.1.0.  I didn't bother restarting since the releases came in quite quickly and going straight back to the start is a bit of a PITA lol.

Great, makes sense. I'll assume this bug is fixed then.
