I queued a few levels of pineapple juice research. I outsourced the first level, the reported cost for this was about 9K, which was in line with what I would expect. However, my cash on hand seemed to drop by about 15 million. Subsequently the queue said:


Current research: Researching of quality 10
Current outsource cost: $882,839,851.65
Time remaining: 00:26:29

which is probably not the real cost of level 10 pineapple juice technology.

The 15 million is not a big deal, unless it's super obvious if you look at it. Luckily I didn't have a billion lying around to accidentally spend.

Also, just noticed: the beverage research facility popover says -8000% complete. I'll leave that research queue running in case you want to look at it. It has about 7 hours queued on it.

Also, possibly relevant: I had done some adding and removing on that queue before. I had removed a bunch of items that were queued before the lemon juice levels, and I queued some stuff after the lemon juice levels, then removed them, then queued some more things including another lemon juice level.

I spent a few million outsourcing items in my other research facility queues, and didn't see the problem again.

After level 10 finished, the numbers for the subsequent pineapple juice levels looked correct again. I outsourced another level of it, and the cost was as expected.

I'm quite certain of the ~15 million $ glitch as I had another window open so I could verify that I had had as much money as I thought I had.

Was this not a bug, but a rollback of money I got from cancelling (which I hadn't noticed happening, not too observant sometimes)?
