[1.2.2_beta] (fb85) multiple edict cost reduction not taken into account

[Kliwarrior]

What happened

I have the following techs:
Synthetic Thought Patterns ( -15% edict costs ...)
Adaptive Bureaucracy ( -15% edict costs ...)

Edicts should cost 30% less but:

1) they show "97" in the edict panel (see picture #1)
2) they show "127" in the tooltip (see picture #2)
3) they are not activated until I have "127" (see picture #1)



How to reproduce:
activate the two techs above and check for an edict

Version
1.2.2_beta (fb85)

Mods
none

DLC
The usual ones (creature of the void, symbols of domination etc.. )

Hi @Kliwarrior

If you just unlock the second tech, save/reload to see if the discount is take into account. Some bonus/malus sometimes take ages to activate in both UI and game engine.

Thank you for your report.

It does indeed sound like the game for some reason failed to update the cost properly - but I'm unable to find a way to get the "old" cost to stick to any noticeable degree.
Do you recall anything of note that happened in game that might have caused the old value to stick beyond (IIRC) the next monthly update?

I saw something similar when I got a leader with the charismatic trait, I did not get the monthly edict cost reduction. I did not check to see if it reduced the cost of planetary edicts though.

Started for me with 1.22 beta

Should be easy to test if you start the game with a charismatic leader.

I'm sorry but I'm not aware of something "strange". And I was so dumb not to take a copy of the savegame... :/
Anyway the suggestion of the "charismatic leader" is a chance.. If I manage to reproduce it in a more certain way I'll post it all the info.
