Confirmed
I recently gained this mutation & thought something was up but hadn't gotten around to more testing yet. I'd noticed activating the mutation didn't seem to be affecting my char's speed or move cost. What I have noticed is that my thirst & tiredness seem greater since acquiring the mutation. I also have Bulging Eyes & Reflex Photophore so it's possible these are additional sources of drain. The mutagen use tax is another possibility. But I can't shake the feeling that Insect Wings is just permanently stuck on activated after seeing this issue.
As an aside, what the heck are RU's?? They're the currency mutations use but I don't have a clue as to what pool they're drawing from or how that pool is determined.
Looks like this is a dupe of #42596. The other thread posits this issue applies to all movement-related mutations.
Yeah, closing as duplicate.
Describe the bug
Ever since my character mutated Insect Wings, my movement cost has been significantly lower without incurring the active cost of the mutation. Turning the mutation on through the mutation menu activates the drain, but does not make my character faster. Turning it back off again does not remove the movement cost reduction, meaning it is effectively permanently active without costing anything.
My regular movement cost on the character in question is 105 with Insect Wings (on or off), and when I remove the mutation through debug, it shoots up to 141.
Steps To Reproduce
Make any player character
Make a move and write down the cost (107 orthogonal on a default start)
Mutate Insect Wings through any means
Make a move, the cost should be significantly lower (80 orthogonal on a default start with debugged Insect Wings)
Activate Insect Wings through the mutation menu. Moving will now drain resources, but the movement cost remains the same as in 4 (80 orthogonal).
Deactivate Insect Wings through the mutation menu. Moving will now no longer drain resources, but the movement cost still remains the same as in 4 (80 orthogonal).
Expected behavior
I expect that the Insect Wings mutation would only reduce my movement cost while activated and draining resources.
