Increasing health while injured resets healing time

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
If an injured mechwarrior trains on guts to a level that increases heath points, the remaining time to heal is set back to a higher (but not necessarily) original value. This was on my primary character, going from +1 to +2 health via Guts training.

Have you tried verifying your files?
No

Steps to reproduce the issue
Start with an injured mechwarrior with experience points to spend. Let time pass until there is just a few days before the warrior is healed. Spend XP to increase guts to a level that increases health points. Note that time to heal has increased.

That sounds like what one would expect if your current health hasn't changed but the amount of full health has, there's a bigger gap to heal over now. Is your expectation that the extra points in the health upgrade be credited to you immediately instead?

If so I'm afraid that will not be changed as there will be no more updates for this game, I'm sorry.

Sorry to hear that there won't be any more updates, I've been enjoying the game and would look forward to more content.

I expected that the time to heal would be set when the injury was incurred and would stay fixed. Any changes would cause the calculation for the next injury change, but not the one currently running. Since there's only three tiers in the Guts tree where this could happen, it's not a game breaking bug, but it is a little annoying.

Thanks!
