Yeah there was a battle way back at a Bhulban or Shulus in which we got screwed by it, unable to use the con mats to complete our healing tents and other forward bases.
Was a sad day indeed.
Next time it happens we really need to make sure some people test logging in and out thoroughly test the shit out of what is going on.
It stinks of entering the battle too early, but what makes no sense is that the bug often kicks in mid battle...
