Exploiting a Naval glitch doesn't make you a better player

Can confirm this is stupidly easy to trigger by accident. Just ran 2 airstrikes and a naval, and still have 4 MAPs. Didn't even do anything to run attacks faster, that's just how shitty doing things around update is, apparently.

So Alex disabled naval battles I'm pretty sure cause the page dont load.

If this comment is the first time the playerbase is informed of this I'm going to shit myself with rage.

@Alex Any ETA on when a fix for this can be presented? 

Another example from just today:

Its happening to people by accident as well, so a fix is a sorely needed.

The glitch is cropping up all the time for me with GAs. If I save up 12 MAP on 5 offensive wars and then run 20 GAs, it's almost odds on that at least 1 of those 20 will somehow not use MAP. I'm still mystified as to how/why it happens. I can only assume it's a problem with the PHP script that changes the MAP counter when attacks are run.

Still working on the issue. I can't replicate it on my end, which makes it really hard to know when a fix works or not.

I do believe we've curbed the issue considerably with a recent change around a week ago, though I know it's not entirely fixed yet.

Ty for the update mate, I assume its just trial and error on trying to pin down the cause and patch it since you can't seem to replicate it?

It might be related, but I actually had the opposite problem where a ground battle of mine showed up and gave me a results screen, but didn't actually exist in terms of the war, timeline, or action point use. Sadly I didn't take a screenshot since I didn't expect it, but I know it happened since I saw that it was a pyrrhic victory, while the timeline showed no pyrrhic victories.

Of course, phantom ground battle results that didn't actually happen is much better than phantom battles that happen but don't cost action points, so hopefully if that was the fix then it is working as intended?

This exact same thing just happened to me with ground attacks.
