[1.1.2552] Prisoner able to use biocoded weapon not belonging to them

[MZ]

I got a biocoded chain shotgun - dropped by some imperial ofc - so I put it away so maybe I can sell it later.

So about 2 years later a colonist got the jailbreaker mental break, and let out two prisoners, a tribal and a pirate. The tribal girl went right into the storage, picked up the biocoded shotgun (whose real owner left the map a long time ago) and proceeded to kill everyone in sight.

I made her catatonic using debug mode and checked the weapon, and it still says "biocoding: Opos Decus" yet Xadavas Pheasant was pretty happy using it. Attached screenshot, unfortunately i didnt take one while she was using it only after.

Your game version is pretty old, you should update and check if it is already fixed. [1.1] Prison-breaking prisoners pick up, use, and rebind bonded linked weapons

FYI, traders won't buy biocoded weapons because no one but the original owner can use them anyway, so they're essentially worthless. Unless you plan on melting them down for scrap metal (which is what I do) they're just taking up space in your storage.
