Potential bug - Boosted Starport rumor, low starport

[Alex Fury]

On a game I'm quite far into, I landed at a planet with a 'Boosted Starport' rumor
Text for the rumor: 'the busy starport is offering more components for ship upgrades than usual and at discounted prices'
There's more, for water-fuel discount, and potential influence boost for contacts

The potential 'bug' here, is that the starport is only a 5-rating, and hence not high enough to DO anything
When I tap the 'upgrade ship' it says a starport has to be rating 6+ to have the right crew...
And of course Buy New is also grayed out.
Kind of a pointless rumor in this case, if not a 'bug' that the rumor perhaps should really only hit on a 6+ starport, or perhaps allow lower ones to have 'something'.
Yes, there is still the discounted water-fuel... But honestly, that's not a big deal.

Alex Fury - the boost is placed on top of whatever starport exists. In this case, you got limited results due to the shape of their starport.

I think it would be cool if boosted Starport also reduced the price of repairs.

That would make it a bit more useful for lower-end starports. Else, there's really little point of that rumor for lower-end ones.

Well, not exactly. Keep in mind that Rumors are not just for the player's ship, they're also for the other parts of the game!
