Charges bug (1.41b)

[Silbeg]

in 1.41b, there appears to be a bug in charges. I cannot select both boostable, and clips. If it matters, I was attempting to place charges on a multipower reserve (ok, maybe boostable doesn't make sense here in the rules... I will check that out as well).

I do not have an example. I backed out the update file to 1.40, so that I could continue to prepare today, but if needed, will try and replicate later.

Try fuel charges.
They don't work either.
I've got 6 hours of fuel being listed as -1.75.
:(

Sigh. I'll get to work on this (again) once I catch up on the backlog of work from my vacation. Charges are <b>way</b> more trouble than they're worth....

I got questions about charages as well. I have been modifiying the template under charages because I want the numbers to be different as well as the costs to be different. When I copy the modifier charges in the vehicle template it works fine, but when I modify the charges to look like the following:

Charges no longer show up on the list of limitations. Hope the vaction was fun. Sorry to bring this up.

Actually, this seems to be working properly for me.

It would help if you posted the actual construction that you're looking at.

If I select 1 Continuing Fuel Charge lasting 6 Hours each which Never Recover, I get a value of -1.75 (correct)

If I remove the "Never Recover" bit, I get +1/4 (correct)
