1.6 Mercenaries Ysengaurd +100 Credits Not always applied [Not an Issue]

from GalCiv3 Forums

While playing 1.6 Mercenaries the Ysengaurd ship should provide an additional +100 credits per anomaly surveyed.  While most of the time this happens I've notice on some instances it does not.  To this point I haven't been able to narrow down a reason of when it doesn't apply why it doesn't apply but, the most recent one just provided 100 credit by itself with no extra bonus's applied an no other credits applied.

Next time it happens I'll post a screen shot of it not reflecting it.

I have never seen it not pay. There's always a first time though.

Interesting as I selected it early in my ongoing game and am rather sure that it always paid. I do recall that when I took the lone precursor relic that I found, it didn't pay the extra 100 but perhaps that wasn't intended.

We haven't seen this yet but we'll keep our eyes open to see if we can repro.

I have to report that it does indeed add 100 credits to a precursor relic.  The relic popup gave the relic bonus and its credits and the 100 credit bonus for Ysengard was also listed.

Thx, this is good news. Obviously, I didn't see the extra hundred when I took the PC relic. Perhaps bcuz I was too unhappy to only get +500 science which is quite weak by that time compared to other bonuses, IMO.

Yeah it does apply the extra 100 credits to regular anomalies as well as precursor relics, however, there are random one offs that for whatever reason don't add the extra I've seen it twice to this point.  Because it's not a common thing I haven't been able to track down the cause/reason/why this happens.  I mainly put it out there to see if anyone else has seen this and figured when/why it happens to try to help narrow down.

Found the cause of this and it's not an issue.  when adding sensor range or life support distance or additional moves it appears as it's just applying 1 100 credit, however, the actual gain for the anomaly is the sensor/range/moves and the 100 credits are extra...
