Incorrect funds after recovering vehicle

[TackleMcClean]

I'm trying to figure out a strange scenario where recovered funds become my new amount of funds, meaning wrong.

In general, this is how things work.

[New amount of funds] = [Old fund amount] + [Recovered fund amount]

However, this is what happens for me:

[New amount of funds] = [Recovered fund amount]

Meaning it disregards any previous amount of funds!

 

It doesn't always happen, but it usually happens when I'm recovering large sums of funds (several million).
I'm using USI MKS, and I'm recovering large amounts of ExoticMinerals. Most often then, it happens.

If I make a small vessel and recover that, things look normal and it's the "old" correct equation applied.

Any idea what could be wrong?

Take a look in the MKS threads, they might have encountered this before.

But also, recover one of these vessels, and post up your Ksp.log, it might have some info we could use.

Are you 100% sure?

1000% sure?

The screen where you recover your craft actually tells you both, and I always thought the "total funds" was a bit too prominent compared to the "recovered funds"

That big blue number is your total funds. Recovered funds is right above it, dimmer and less prominent.

I'm 100% sure.

Example of how it looks:

Before recovery, 52.6 mil

After recovering 83 mil, it should be 52 + 83 mil, but instead:

Now, I think I'm onto something here.. I just tried this again (not the same numbers in screenshots there), and checking the persistent.loadmeta I notice the funds is using a float value instead of integer.

So, recovering 49.8 million, while previously having 30 million, nets you:

funds = 49883974.30078125

It's not adding; it's appending. Am I refunding too large sums?

That could very well be your issue.    Try recovering something for 50k, right off the pad, and see if it works.  Then keep increasing the value till you see a failure. 

This might just be the case of the devs not foreseeing how crazy we really are, and using a variable type that can't handle the size, although, the behavior really doesn't match that exact hypothesis.
