Topic says it all.

I had stripped all omnipods from the EXE-C(L) and then saved it.

Later, I went to add omnipods back. The first pod, no matter what it is or what body part it's for, causes 125K C Bills to be added to the "Cart Total" C-Bill cost (and yes, I'm talking about 'pods that I have in stock). Again, this only happens when adding the fist pod. Adding subsequent ones costs nothing.

I haven't saved the mech yet, so don't know if it will charge me, and don't know if the problem would repeat, but I do know that removing all omnipods from the mech does not clear out the 125K charge. To do that, one has to hit "RESET 'MECH".

It's not a bug, it's a feature. You should not be making Cbills too fast.

We have this filed as an issue.

Normally, switching from Artemis to Standard Missile Guidance incurs a 125k C-Bill charge (as intended). However, if you replace your missile OmniPods with non-missile OmniPods, MechLab will automatically remove your Artemis upgrade and charge you for the change to Standard. We don't want that to be the case; MechLab should ideally remember your Artemis upgrade status for that 'Mech in the event that you want to get a missile OmniPod back on there.

Unfortunately I don't have a solid ETA on the fix just yet. It will require some adjustments in the way MechLab treats the OmniPod swaps.

Thanks for the response. I didn't do anything with missiles.... Are you saying the original load out had missiles with Artemis, and that when I removed the pods, the missiles were removed and Artemis was reset, and that somehow the chassis remembered it used to have Artemis, and thusI was charged for the change to standard guidance? Or something like that?

Sounds like that to me. Which means, there'd be an easy manual workaround.
