Demo General bugs

The other day I noticed a couple bugs when playing as Demo General:

1. Demo Gen's RPG Troopers don't have the Detonate button for the Suicide ability, even though the upgrade icon is in one of their upgrade slots, so they should have the Suicide ability once the upgrade has been purchased.

2. After researching the Suicide ability, and saving/reloading a Skirmish game - Demo Gen's Workers' icon for the Suicide ability is greyed out as though it hasn't been researched yet, even though it has been. Other units can still use the Suicide ability however.

3. If Dem Gen fires a Scud Storm directly at or near the Scud Storm itself, sometimes all of the Scud missiles don't lauch (ex. one time only 3 of the 9 missiles launched). Unaware if this affects other GLA generals' Scud Storms.

---

Also, I noticed that when Demo Gen constructs a 'fake building', there is no option to upgrade it to a real structure - but I recall there being such an option in vZH - though I'm not aware yet if this is the case with other generals too, and whether it's actually a bug or just a design.

Update - I've checked and this is the case with all the GLA Generals - though in vZH they were able to upgrade fake buildings into real buildings for a fee - I'm not sure why this feature was removed.

IIRC the team determined that the feature was useless, and the upgrade slots could be put to better use.

Update - apparently this bug is actually present from the start (for whatever reason, I thought it only took affect after saving/reloading). So after researching the Suicide ability, the Detonate button for workers will still stay greyed out - however they will still explode when crushed.
