[2.0.23] Artillery turret's turret has stack size tooltip

Post by Hares »

No other turrets state so.
Same for the artillery wagon. Didn't find any other turrets with listed stack size.

How is this a bug, that tooltip is correct: it does have a stack size of 1.

Not a bug.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Artillery turret's turret is not an item.
The artillery turret itself has a stack size of 10.

If not a bug, I have two questions:
1. What does this stack size mean?
2. Why it's listed for those two items only?

Oh, sorry, I didn't realise there were two 'stack sizes' in the tooltip. And that you were talking about the 'turret' of the artillery turrert, and not the 'artillery turret' itself.
You are right, the turret-turret should not be showing a 'stack size'.
It might still not classify as a bug if that information is technically correct.

However:
  • without cheats or the editor I highly doubt you can obtain a stack of artillery turret turrets, so this information is practically useless
  • it is easily misunderstood as the stack size of the artillery turrert itself, and not the turret turett.
Still not the most confusing tooltip I've seen, that would be the atomic bomb...
