Hi, noticed odd behavior in X4 ship building queues that has been there since a few releases and is still present today 1.60b3.
It results in potentially large amount of player money getting lost.
I started a new game and went to HOP Wharf. Ordered two ships, an M size miner and S size fighter, both fully loaded.
Wharf from the start didn't have enough material so ships got added to build queue, at position 3 and 4.
I also upgraded the player ship same time, meaning I was kinda stranded on the wharf.
As I couldn't do anything else, i just let the game run by itself for 15min and played around checking map view checking station details and building progress.
I noticed suddenly the two unbuilt ships in queue (yellow, waiting 2min) disappeared and the station started upgrading my ship and building the M class miner. I assume this is some sneaky automatic clean up script running in the background, to keep economy and ship building going.
Script or BUG, whatever it was, it also removed my S class fighter from the queue. Without refund. So I lost 5.5m instantly. This cant't be intended.
I have read similar posts here before but never had it been picked up or noticed by EGO devs.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start new game
2. Dock at a busy wharf with building queue
3. Order a few ships to be build (make sure station doesn't have enough resources at the start)
4. Order player ship to be upgraded
5. Wait and observe
Ship Build Orders disappearing from build queue - no refund
