Blueprint Originals Changing to Copies... Anyone Seen This?

I was doing an exploration site the other day, hacked a container, and got a BPO for some kind of shield module. After bringing it back to the station I discovered it was simply a copy. I thought perhaps I had simply made a mistake, but I could have sworn that it was a BPO originally.

So just now I ran another site, hacked another container, and found another BPO. I took a screenshot of it this time, thinking it might transform into a copy. And sure enough, it did. Now it is a copy, but I have the screenshot from when it was an original.

Anyone seen this?

BPOs don't drop from exploration as far as I am aware (but, I'm not the smartest cookie sometimes).

I think it would have been a bug if your saw a BPO. Should have always been a BPC.

Calm down miner. As you pointed out, people think they can get away with stuff they would not in rl... Like for example illegal mining... - Ima Wreckyou*

It was definitely a BPO both times, and now I have the screenshot to prove it. And yes I'll certainly report it but want to hear what others say to this first. For all I know someone will say "known issue."

Well. "THERE'S your problem." Which is why I posted.

Thank you.

Dunno, never had this issue.

But yeah, BPOs never drop from exploration.
