Fuelling cost issue

[Fatleaf]

During operations with The Honourable Guild of Test Pilots I began noticing an issue with fuel cost. After discussing it with Another Commander on IRC we have found a player gets charged more than what is shown. Apparently, mass/fuel pricing slips when it comes to actually deducting the credits for ships with subents, that it is confirmed for both the Omega and the Falcon.

Err, would you be referring to this:

Code: Select all

			rate = calcFuelChargeRate(mass);	// post-MNSR fuelPrices will be affected by missing subents. see  [self subEntityDied]

I had a longish talk with Jens at the time, the upshot of that was: to fix the fuel price for subentities there would be a bit too much change needed.
"There's quite a lot of collision code tied up with the subentities, so better leave it as it is for the time being"...

Or is it something else you're referring to?

Kaks, check r4661. I think it was just a matter of calculating two prices differently: One that was displayed on the F3 screen and one that was actually used to subtract from the credits value.

Ahhh!
