[Spce-user] Strange rate-o-mat behaviour v2.8

[George Mason]

Hi,

Sorry to re-post but really struggling with this. Cannot find out where
rate-o-mat appears to be getting its costs from. Is there any way I can
increase logging? Run the process in interactive mode perhaps?

Really grateful of any assistance or advice

Thanks

George
