Description of the bug

CiC ahelped saying that the OB couldn't be fired with the message 'processing another action' I suspect this caused a runtime because the CO or XO tried to fire the OB from a console that an SO was logged into. The SO also admits that they may have possibly changed the active squad from Bravo to Foxtrot while the coordnates were being held/fired

What's the difference with what should have happened?

OB should work on every console.

How do we reproduce this bug?

Unknown. Possibly: launching the OB as someone who isn't logged in as the operator. Alternatively, Try to launch the OB while someone else changes the squad from Bravo to Foxtrot.

This suggests then there was no warhead at the time:

Hey there, I was the SO mentioned in the above post, as well as the one who loaded the OB. I can confirm it was chambered and the screen said ready at the time of the bug occuring.
