Vanilla Bug - Unsolved Stored plots

I'm playing SS 1.1.8 with the new submenu of the other mod.

I stored two plots and they are under special like before, and they appear twice so I have two different classes of the same plot stored. They are the same plot (wood residential plots) and the numbers near the name (saying how many you can build whit your actual resources) are different scrolling from one model to the other.

I can't upload a screenshot right now, I don't have an internet connection on my PC, will do in 8-9 hours if you need it
 
So stored plots move to the special menu? That's strange, i'm not sure if i can control that- but i'll check into it.
 
I just saw this Bug report even though I don't think it is a bug. It's just something SMM hadn't thought of, I suppose. I posted a similar item in another forum as I didn't consider it a bug. It ought not to do it, but not really a bug. Just some item not attended.
 
Ahh ok - looks like I may have left the wood platform residential in both menus. I'll get it cleaned up.

EDIT: Everything looks good in the esp. It's definitely not an issue with SMM. I think what's happening, is that the construction record for those plots you stored were from before the patch, so it's still showing them in the special menu. My bet is that after you place those again, they won't be in the Special menu anymore.

Having them show up twice in the same menu after storing them is a normal game engine bug though.
 
Definitely an engine issue. I just did some tests with turning the plot cost on and off and the same thing happens. I think the engine just looks to whatever the first matching record is when you have a stored plot and displays it as that and ignores the conditions.

So right now, every plot style has 4 construction entries, 1 Normal, 1 No Cost, 1 Normal for SMM, and 1 No Cost for SMM. Under normal circumstances, it only shows you the correct one based on your options and whether you have SMM, once you store a plot though, that system gets all out of whack.

For me the menu goes back to normal after you place the stored plots. Let me know if you see differently, and maybe upload your save to a drop box so I have something to test with.
