triplane->fightermk1 armory upgrade surprise instant-completed

[obsidi]

i ran into a fun bug:

in armory i had 2 upgrades going; cleopatra and fightermk1.
when cleopatra completed, fightermk1 had 2 days left ... but both completed together.

edit..............
it happened again! when my tanks upgraded to 'medium tank' my fighters completed to mk2 .... happened twice with a witness both times (my girlfriend)

so new conjecture... under some circumstances fighters (planes) will instantly complete when paired with something else that is completing normally.
what fun!

Lucky you!

doesn't work for two oil requiring generals... unfortunately...

Yep, tried the same thing, and no dice.

 

[obsidi]

damn. i'm sure i did not accidentaly spend crowns; it might have been a subtle bug and i have no idea how it happened.
my girlfriend saw it too and she verifies it happened. to be clear it was a fighter upgrade and a general upgrade, and the general finishing ... bug-finished the fighter.

So - you hit finish now, within the five minutes when it was free, and both finished at once? Just want to make sure I understand the process, so I can try to replicate it. For science.

 

[obsidi]

no, i did not hit the 'free' button; i logged in and the completed golden anvil was there.
the skeptic would conclude that i'm mistaken about the timing; i cannot deny that is objectively likely...
but i really wanted those planes .. i'm pretty sure it was 2 more days to complete.

just FYI for the community: happened again!

when you are upgrading your fighter airplanes with a 2-slot armory, they will sometimes (under conditions i know not what) instantly-complete when something else completes. i had industrial "tanks" -> "medium tanks" complete and the fighters went "mk1" to "mk2" at the same time, boosted by 8 hours .. not much but it's the same bug.
what fun!
