Well, Vern got back to me and was going to manually fix things in the database. He agreed the difference in results for LAB Startup and disassembly ran differently in similar situations, so he was going to fix that.
For the ALLX error I made, he graciously was also going to manually fix that behind the scenes.
Then he borked the database trying to fix this stuff for me (I assume it was just for me) or others based on his email asking everyone to re-download Turn 16 results.
Not expecting that he was going to re-run Turn 16 results ( I did not read his first email, until I'd received both emails - one advising it was going to happen, the next saying please re-download), or I would have asked him (hopefully in time) to fix the other 4 order lines that included ALLX in them on the same ADDON order.
So, what happened, you ask? Well, he did fix the order with ALLX in it involving loads of food. Yay! But he did not look further to see there were 4 other orders lined up after it so I move d a crapload of CNW and PRO to the ship instead of food. Net results were horrible!
LAB production down, no FCT production, ADDONs of different sorts due to lack of CNW. That ship did not have enough LFS capacity for that influx so 20% of them died for a loss of A LOT of POP (a LOT), mostly PROs.
I emailed Vern asking if he could re-re-run the turn, but I am not getting my hopes up. At the end of the day, it is my responsibility to look at my orders and fix them before submitting them. But, in this case, I thought I had everything sorted out with him with the manual edits. If I had read the first email in real-time fashion, I may have responded early enough with the five requested edits so the rerun would include the fix. But I didn't. So no edits, and results arguably worse than before,
Well, I guess I will see what happens and see what he says. If no re-re-run is possible, I'll do my best to recover but losing time (loss of FCT, loss of LAB, loss of assembly capability) and losing that many PROs is a serious blow to my position.
