Anomolies and Morale

I'm sure that this is mentioned somewhere else, but I'm convinced it bears repeating. Anomolies that are supposed to provide bonuses to Morale are instead boosting Defence. An insidious and not immediately obvious little bug this one. :)

Yes, I can confirm that with the latest 1.03 installed.
Started a new game as Universalists which gets as one of their abilities a +10 to defense. I picked up 2 anomolies that gave +2 morale but now have +14 defense and no morale added at all. I'm only about a dozen moves into the game so it's easy to see.

From the GC Mods forum.

You must use notepad to fix this (take only a couple keystrokes):

"FILE: \Data\SoldieringAbility01.ANOMALY
ISSUE: The Morale anomaly is affecting Ship Defense, not Morale.
REMEDY: Find the ANOMOLY Morale section of the file. Change Quantity from 2 to 4. (Yes, Quantity, kind of goofy, I know)."

There are a bunch of these you can correct yourself.

That is probably just what I'll end up doing, Malleus. Thanks for the quick head's up on where to look and what to change.

I figure if it is such a simple problem to fix, it can't hurt to point it out to Brad. Perhaps we'll get lucky and a fix will be included in the next major patch.

One question though: Does making a change like this affect your ability to post scores to the Metaverse?
