MAC speed upgrade bug

As a commander, I love having a group of macs to work with in the mid game. I have noticed that sometimes I research the speed upgrade, and it does nothing. The button disappears and the macs are certainly not faster.

I suspect this happens sometimes when there is a mac building, and I select the upgrade.

Anyone else have this trouble? MAC love!!

(I also discovered marines can press +use on MACs to have a little chat)

    I noticed that too.

    I also noticed that they recently added a new mac auto-weld function. Which is nice for easy base repair. Problem is that it is always on, and when gorges start bile bombing buildings, you have to wrestle with them in order for them to not suicide-weld. I hope in the future, you can right click the weld button to toggle auto-weld on/off as it can get incredibly frustrating.

    This bug happens when you research mac speed while the robotics door is opening. The same will happen if you try to build a mac or an arc while the robotics door opening animation is actually going - will lose the res.
