Using 5.1.0.6345.

Aumtlich beams destroy cracked orbs immediately, rather than turning them into broken orbs.

This bug was introduced by a fix to this task: http://forum.caravelgames.com/viewtopic.php?TopicID=39350

Basically at the end of the turn Aumtlich gaze and Seep death is calculated one more time, so the beam damaged the orb at the Aumtlich's turn and then, once again, at the very end of the whole turn calculation.

Confirmed: Aumtlich beams turn cracked orbs into broken orbs in 5.1.0.6462.

Tested some more exotic cases. As far as I can see, broken and cracked orbs are handled properly even if a cracked orb is hit by an aumtlich beam and then destroyed later in the turn, or if tarstuff is destroyed and a black door dropped as a result.

Even building an orb works properly. I tested this sequence happening in one turn:
-Aumtlich beam hits cracked orb
-Engineer builds another cracked orb in the beam's path
-Original orb is destroyed by a powder keg on a firetrap exploding

And the newly-built orb was cracked at the end. Tried the same building a broken orb, and it was destroyed.

Just wanted to make sure the fix here still worked when the beam path needed updating. It does. Everything seems to be working fine.
