Summary0000529: UnitRestricted can be circumvented
DescriptionIf multiple factories start building a limited unit at the same time Spring doesn't check if the unit limit was reached.

Reproduction: Grab Gundam, .give a few fedgclass, select all of them, order a unit labelled as Limit: 1.

Marked as severe since it is a VERY nasty exploit and a mod that assumes a given unit will exist only once per player could be completely imbalanced by this. Also it can be triggered by accident.

Players can also be given more limited units than they should be allowed to possess allowing teams to stockpile large numbers by having one player build the units and immediarely give them to his ally to make more. At least this requires teams and active exploiting.
