Post-Battle morale issues explanation

[enf91]

I see a lot people are confused that their morale goes up after a battle featuring the destruction of enemy elements, but they lose the battle and get a message saying "# morale points lost". That or they see only the message and assume they lost NM for winning. I will explain this. You gain NM and VP for destroying enemy units, so your morale goes up. However, if you ultimately lose the battle, the game is programmed to post a "NM lost" message. The code just inserts the number value for NM change in the line while keeping the rest of the line the same. In essence, in the message, the number value is independent of the rest of the line. You have to look at the actual numbers to figure out what's going on.
