Upgrade screen

[HobbesACW]

Hi folks, I'm wondering if there are some bugs in the upgrade screen - or maybe a lack of understanding on my part? This is the simplest example I can show. If I test by upgrading to exactly the same model there is one difference here - the 8 and 12 shown why is that? For other units I see a lot of confusing stats that make no sense (even worse when you upgrade a unit with a leader attached - often the unit with the leader seems to have worse stats even if you test it by looking at the same model to upgrade to).

It's fairly simple actually!
It's an easy way to compare two units.
The number on the left represents the old unit in case of upgrading / the selected unit if you are just comparing two.
The number on the right are the stats of the new, upgraded unit / the unit you hover your mouse over to compare.

In your example, the current unit has a mech attack of 8. The new, improved unit would have a mech attack score of 12.
The golden glow is there to highlight which is superior in what category.

It's not an improved unit though - they are both Type 2 Ho-I's.

That is strange indeed! Do you have the savegame?

Some Units have a variable attack stat. The type 2 has an attack of 8-12. The 8 is used in open Terrain and 12 in 100% cover (Manual Page 61). When comparing Units , there is not enough space to Show both

Also, if you select a unit in the panel, then mouse-over another one elsewhere in the panel, these two get compared in that stat box (hard to say from the pic if that what's happening here)

Thanks folks. If I click on the unit rather than just mouse over it the stats seem OK. Also I managed to confuse myself with the leader - all seems fine.
