Bug Or Feature?

Post by JakeGrey »

When trying to create a Dragon body anti-air platform for a skirmish game in 2.3.9, I discovered something slightly odd. After selecting the Avenger SAM turret, I searched high and low on the list for the Stormbringer AA laser but for the life of me I couldn't find it, and had to make do with a Whirlwind or Flak Cannon instead. Is this intentional for balance purposes or some kind of weird bug?

In short, the menu has no room for all weapons available.

It is probably doable but current GUI infrastructure is really unfriendly...

There's a similar issue when you install too many AIs - the game settings menu can't list them all for similar reasons.
