Reload Your Way to Victory

[Camicon Dachass]

And no, I'm not talking about save scumming.

So I cleared out Cluff's Stand last night in my Career Mode playthrough, put my ON1-V in for some refits, saved and logged off.

I go back to the game this morning and find a whole new set of contracts waiting for me. On Cluff's Stand. I think "that's odd", but I only loaded the game to test a .json edit, so I exit out.

I load the game again, this time to play, and find a different set of contracts to complete. Eyebrows are raising.

Without exiting the game, I reload the exact same save file that I selected on start-up. I get another set of contracts, different than the first two sets.

I reload again, and for the fourth time receive a different set of contracts.

I'm *pretty sure* this isn't intended behaviour, because it would allow you to complete a theoretically infinite number of contracts without a single day passing (so long as you have pilots and 'Mechs to field), but I'm not entirely sure this is a bug either. Can anyone confirm?

Sounds like a bug to me. I’ve not experienced this, but I tend to travel to the next planet and check out the shop and missions before ending a play session. I’m not sure if I’ve ever saved while still at a ‘finished’ world. I’ll try and see if I can replicate it the next time I play, my install is completely vanilla with no mods so that info might be useful.

My guess is that it is a case of "zero contracts here, create some" edge case. Wouldn't hurt to put in a bug report since it is odd.

I tried to recreate this after leaving Cluff's Stand, and wasn't able to. If it happens again I'll file a bug report, but since it isn't really a problem I'm not too concerned about it.

Cluff’s Stand, huh?

Anything he close to Cluff’s Stand? Can anyone recreate this bug from there?
