Happened to me and my friend. When theres a unit currently fighting with a spatula on it and you put another spatula to make force of nature, the game doesn't let you put an extra unit on like it should. The item is essentially useless. Only fixed for me when I upgraded my unit to level 3 but when my friend hit the bug that didn't work for him.
Ok well don't put it on mid-battle. You can't switch units in the middle of the fight, it's not a bug; it only makes sense that you also cannot add more units in battle, you could just make unfairly advantageous positioning. You can't leave an extra spot on the field open (with a clear bench) and buy something then put it on the field mid-battle, either.
Edit: If you mean that your cap is not increased by the item for the rest of the game if it's crafted during a battle, that would be a bug, I just didn't understand that's what you mean.
This just happened to me! thank goodness Im not the only one
Same thing happened to me, sucks managed to win tho lol
and to all the comments below asking if he meant it would ignore the team size bonus for the rest of the game, that is what they mean (or at least it's what happend to me)
