Exactly my understanding of the report except that the system (actually the workstation) wasn't in an illegal state but it went into a special mode called the "watching" state. This is quite a legal state. However this mode accessed the System Flight Server through a different code path which had a different (hardcoded?) original magic number of 151, not the new capacity 193.
- gerjomarty 12y agoYes, the system going into "watching mode" with more than 151 Atomic Functions caused the illegal state. It's interesting where in the flow the number of Atomic Functions was being checked against the theoretical maximum - surely that would be checked if you pressed "Select sectors" too, though perhaps with the correct higher limit rather than the incorrect limit.
