Frozen device: bug or by design?

You can only have 3 portals active at a time. When I cast in the order of 1-2-3 they spawn as expected.

When you cast the 4th portal you end up with 1-2-4; replacing the most recently cast, not the first. Subsequent casts follow this logic (1-2-5, 1-2-6...).

I would expect the opposite behavior (the oldest portal being replaced with the newest). 2-3-4, 3-4-5,...

As-is it creates the problem if I miscast a portal (or two) it is going to remain for the entire 30 second duration, so I would effectively only have 1 to use until the first ones expire

Is this intended to work this way?

Can't say that I've noticed this but that for sure sounds counter-intuitive if it's true.

You would think that it would be First In First Out once you reach the portal limit but instead it sounds like you are continually adding and then popping off the top of a stack or something.

Bad implementation if that's how it works.

it wouldn't be the first warden skill with bad implementation.
