No profit when selling data

[Tsueg]

Interesting bug located.

I use a data terminal
I use the phone
I call for a taxi
I do not have enough money to pay for a taxi
I call a data hound
I sell some Mars data
I get some 7000+Y
I connect to the data terminal... ouch, stupid toe fingers
I disconnect from the data terminal
I call for a taxi
I do not have enough money to pay for a taxi ..... (?)

I check my factions screen
- Yup, Mars hates me even more
- Yup, AzTek really does love me even more
- Yup, I am still broke.. now more broke after paying for the phone calls.

I think I shall make AzTek my new data hacking target. mmmhm.

very interesting ... i will investigate, i can imagine several types of state transfer / load issues that might cause this type of data loss

without knowing your code... I have a high expectation that the memory data for the transfer is never stored into the character data until the hang-up of the terminal, so connecting to the matrix dumps everything there and that is when it is lost.

I will try to re-create said error and see if i cam come up with a consistent loss. I will respond back post friends wedding, Monday-ish.
