Yeah...that's what I thought too. Individually, both calls work. ArmyBrain:GiveStorage('MASS', 10000) will correctly augment mass storage by 10000 and ArmyBrain:GiveStorage('ENERGY', 10000) will correctly augment energy storage by 10000.

Try them both together though

ArmyBrain:GiveStorage('ENERGY', 10000)
ArmyBrain:GiveStorage('MASS', 10000)

and only the second function call will remain in effect. Throw in a WaitSeconds(5) in between the calls and you'll see that the second call replaces the first. I get a +10000 energy storage boost, but as soon as the second call is made, I lose the energy storage boost and I get a +10000 mass storage boost instead.

So as best I can tell, I can have a mass storage boost or an energy storage boost but not both.

By the way, I already came up with my workaround. I created a custom unit with the mass and energy storage values that I needed and spawned it off the map where, hopefully, it will not be seen or disturbed.

What do you mean, ridiculous workaround? Just put the command in twice. Specify mass in one and energy in the other.

Is there any way to get BOTH energy and mass storage boosts out of this function, or do I have to come up with a ridiculous workaround because some programmer at GPG was half asleep the day he wrote it?
