Bug: Power levels on startup
I'm doing my first reinforce after finishing up all the fleet content (minus unstable of course). I was running on S111, trying to squeeze as much speed out of overdrive as I could using the OD booster core (even though I couldn't get the second level yet). I had auto purchases for OD levels turned on, and I noticed that the first one was actually a fair bit higher than the others. I noticed that for a brief period of time just after starting the game, my power generation and max was around 3e higher than usual, dropping back down to "normal" after recalculating, which seems to happen around a minute or so after you start, or as soon as your reactor OD levels.

I'm not sure what's happening, something not applying properly on recalculation, or something applying when it shouldn't be on load, but either way I thought people should know.

This is not a bug. When your reactor OD levels, if it has 5 charges, it uses one so you don't waste it. This gives a temporary x6 power generation and max.

I'm aware of that, but my power level goes down, not up. And it's not by 6x, it's by about 400x+. I can't see anything different in the tab but the only thing I can think that'd make that much of a difference is either:

A: Some bonus is not being properly applied on recalculation, like maybe one of the fleet boosts.
B: Some bonus was being improperly applied on start, but recalculating removes it. Best candidate I think would be the two additional levels of VP supercharge that I can't yet afford for the OD booster, which are two 20x boosts. That still seems like less than was showing on load.
