FOR WANT OF A NEGATIVE

by hazed

The new cartel transfer command was implemented last Sunday, as explained in the Fed2 Star, but it accidentally gave Plutocrats a whopping big bonus.

Those who used the new command to transfer money from the personal balance to the cartel treasury, found that the money appeared in the treasury as it was supposed to - but instead of being deducted from the bank balance, it was added to it! So it was a double source of free groats.

Thanks to those players who reported this as soon as they noticed, Bella was able to leap into action and fix the problem. It turned out to be a missing negative sign from the code.

An extra reset brought the fixed code into the game, and the command then worked correctly.

Phew!
