Fig's fuel problems

[Kap]

Since the fig fuel perk, there are some figs that launch with the initial fuel tank not completely full. I just tested the rix adv fig and it is most notable with booster 3, you need to reload to fill the tank when you just undocked. I think I've seen this happen to other faction figs too.

I don't know exactly how the fuel system works but in the example of the rix adv fig it has 13.8 of fuel in ICE and the ship loadout only says 13, maybe there are some problems with the rounding. I know ints don't have this problem.

IIRC apoch stated that it's only visual problem, I mentioned it in cc_02 feedback but can't find reply now

Try launching in a rix adv fig with booster 3 and hit reload.

boost times were supposed to be correct regardless of that reloading problem

EDIT:
apparently you are right, boost times are not the same. I tested with a stopwatch so it might not be perfectly accurate but differences are big enough.
(hm, apoch tested it the same way )

rix adv fig with boost3, fresh: 13.50 sec
boost3, reloaded: 14.13 sec
hvy boost, fresh: 10 sec
hvy boost, reloaded: 11.34 sec
crs boost, fresh: 21.60 sec
crs boost, reloaded: 22.77 sec

I guess total boost time is the same though....

when my booster info says i can boost for 14 seconds and I undock to kill an enemy op push and find myself one second short of ramming the con because my fuel tank is only 13 secs worth then there is something wrong.

The problem with this is that ICE uses a decimal for those ships, and somewhere along the way the decimal is removed in the initial loadout for those ships, making them not quite full.

It will be fixed

What happened to the Ion booster?
