Cannot Move Payload (new issue?)

Issue: sometimes there is no "Move Payload" button when my mech starts next to the payload, and the payload is uncontested.

Game version: 0.5.2

This bug occurs nearly every time I play escort, but it typically doesn't happen the same way so I'd guess it's 2 or more bugs with the same result. I've uploaded a save file showing what I consider the least egregious instance of this bug, which also happens to be the easiest way to reproduce it:

  1. Move payload toward objective with a single mech until round 6.
  2. Have an enemy contest the payload on round 6.
  3. Start turn for Death's Head.
  4. Destroy the enemy contesting the payload.
  5. Move Death's Head 3 spaces to be adjacent to the payload (between Balor and payload).
  6. No "Move Payload" button appears.

Ah, I can't upload saves.

Thank you for the report and save file! I’ll take a look and try to fix before the next release.

It ended up being due to having a deployed drone; it does a virtual turn start for them so they take damage from hive drones or what have you, but since they have no speed the payload was saying “oh! I can only move 0 spaces this turn. :)”

Thanks Olive! I'll avoid using drones on Escort until the next patch.
