Summary0018555: Tooltips don't accurately reflect max health additions/subtractions [1.007]
DescriptionWith sacrificial shops, level-up perks, etc, the tooltip says an item will cost (say) 2 health, but then max health is reduced by 4. Choosing a level-up perk that says it increases max health by 4 actually increases it by 8. This is happening on 1.007, but that version wasn't an available in the version dropdown yet.
TagsNo tags attached.

What difficulty are you playing on?

I was playing on Easy difficulty at the time. If the health modifiers are supposed to be doubled on easy, shouldn't the tooltip be updated to show the actual values? But if this is the case, why would actions that reduce max health also reduce it by twice as much?

I would guess that tooltips aren't piped to update dynamically like that.

Though I can explain what you are seeing.

Every mech has a modifier that basically says that anything that impacts "Max Health" gets multiplied by 2 on easy. This modifier doesn't discriminate between additions or subtractions. It just does it.

Yeah, that's what I thought was happening when I remembered the difficulty I was playing on. I've updated the issue to suggest the tooltips be updated to accurately reflect the values.

For 1.008:

* The max-health reduction from losing a condemned room or from buying an item with health are now applied after the difficulty-based health multipliers, so they don't cause greater-than-expected losses on lower difficulties.

Thanks :)
