I've destructed a titan in order to lower my tech to the cap....
I am unable to spawn any new titans but I also cannot cancel the self destruct Sad

Actually, thats not a bug as such.

Normally, no clan would exceed the points max.

Some clans could cheat by:
Destructing loads of titans
Breeding up other titans to the pts limit again (20000)
and then cancelling the destruct.

So the client disallows cancelling of the destruct when you exceed the points limit.

Is that clear?

Not sure I like that. What happens if you destruct the wrong titan?

I agree..... but I'm not sure if I can work out the logic to make is so you can without allowing people to avoid the cap as Jonathan describes...

Set a deadline for all clans to be within the new cap, after which all of their fire orders will be suspended until they comply?

Alternatively set server to ignore all spawn orders for clans that are over the cap at the start of the turn.
