Barriers Cost/Size bug.

[Awesomdary]

I have noticed that a few research items seem a bit bugged one of them being Barriers

Both are researched under Orbital Materials 4

Point Defense System II (Barrier)
12 Armor Rating
Bulid for 42 CP + $435; Maint $56/Turn
Mass 730

Advanced Barriers III (Barrier)

12 Armor Rating

Bulid for 2 CP + $32; Maint $4/Turn

Mass 330

While I do appriciate the cheaper version (Since I can actually fit a ship with a half decent armor and half decent weapons without downgrading the "level" of the ship) I am guessing this is a error and it should be corrected at some point.

There are also two other almost identical Barriers

Also Reseached at the same time in Advanced Weapons 4

Active Deflectors (Barrier)

14 Armor Rating

Bulid for 66 CP + $672; Maint $84/Turn

Mass 1020

Ultimate Barriers (Barrier)
(whats the point of this one? its more expencive, and bigger...)
14 Armor Rating

Bulid for 70 CP + $700; Maint $88/Turn

Mass 1050

I opened a new ticket to see if their is a bug or anything I can do to improve.

#2576 4X - Bug - Advanced Barriers Balancing Issues

Fixed both the price and mass balancing. Improved the display screen to also show armor bonuses like Hull and W-F
