I've noticed that WO3 drains my cap much more heavily than it did yesterday. In addition, calling Cap-to-shield-shunt 4 causes damage to my capacitor now each time I call it (this did not happen before). Did these get fixed without them telling us?

Tested on 2/28
No change. In my x-wing:
- No commands: 20 shots to cap empty
- WO3 run (only): 63 shots to cap empty
and on CtSS-4
- No damage to any system when run

Makes me want to start running CtSS4 now. Wonder if/when they'll fix this. Maybe our improvements for mp ships will make it into CU as well as these droid fixes. I think it'd be the best time to push it all out.

Capacitor to Shield Shunt 4 should not cause damage anyway, it is not an overload program but merely a large lvl 4 program that transfers power between systems.

I was so sure that CtSS-4 was causing damage that I actually removed it from my flight computer. I'll acquire a new chip and try to test it tonight.

never seen that program damage a capacitor. if you think about it, it shouldn't. it merely shunts all power from the capacitor as opposed to ctss3 which does 75% (or whatever).
