[m5.31.0 - General] Guardian: Protection engineering project cannot be moved behind other projects.

[Melee]

Description: Guardian: Protection project returns to active project after reordering behind other projects.

What Happened: Didn't think the 12 extra base weight of upgraded guardian armor was worth it and moved the project behind two gemini aircraft to finish later, but the change doesn't stick.

Thanks for the bug report. Loaded into the save and I was able to move the guardian project and finish the interceptors first, will bring this up with the rest of the team and we'll try to figure out what's going on

Thanks for the bug report. We can't reproduce this from the save, so I think this is one of many symptom of a bug where the UI gets into a broken state but doesn't crash the game - which means players can carry on playing and eventually more and more things break (usually the game crashes eventually).

In the next Experimental build we're going to try to set the game to crash immediately when it gets into that state. Hopefully that might provide some additional information on what the original cause of these issues are.

Also - the next hotfix will hopefully include a fix for that LOS issue you had with the Cruiser hull. It'd be great if you could test your saves again when it comes out and see if the issue remains (I'll probably remind you in the other thread too, so this is just in case I forget).

? I loaded the save submitted again earlier today and the behavior remains even with a freshly loaded game instance.

Also, after updating to m5.32.0, I was making fusion pistols and cannot move them behind the two gemini and have it stick.

Hmm, can you do an F11 bug report so we can see why this is happening (try to move the fusion pistol behind the gemini interceptor project before F11 so we get the error logged), thanks.

Using the attached save I moved the pistols behind the geminis (by dragging with mouse) and then changed to a different screen and then back to engineering. This was done several times.

Thanks. I've had a look at it and it seems like if you drag it a bit too far and the item has to "snap back" into position at the bottom of the list, the change isn't saved. If you move it carefully and don't go beyond the list area then the change is saved correctly. We'll get it fixed.

Yeah that'd be a bit fiddly for a mechanic.
