Summary0028629: Electrical shortage puts you in an infinite loop of transitioning between class 2 and class 3 intelligence
DescriptionJust lost a large electrical parasite which put me in an energy shortage.

This makes you loop between class 2 and class 3 intelligence while firing the visual/audio effects from upgrading your intelligence class.

It also softlocks the game since the notifications from changing class keep popping up

You can break the softlock if you have a repair spider close to the destroyed parasite/generator by spamming the shortcut for turn skip

Another soft lock detected - if you run out of aluminum and so are unable to make compute you are also locked between the two intelligence classes. I have a save of the issue that I can have attached below.
Alumina soft lock.save (3,898,647 bytes)

Thanks!

* Fixed an issue where electrical shortages could cause rolling cascades of things turning off and on, and a similar issue with compute cycles. The most obvious effect of this in certain circumstances was rapid-cycling through intelligence class 2 and 3, but it affected other things as well.
** When you load an existing save that has this problem, you'll see it cycle twice (up and then back down) because it has to sort things out for a second. But longer-term, and for saves without this problem already miscalculated inside them, it will just cycle once.

@B, your issue was the same one -- it's the electrical shortage, not a shortage of alumina.
