Yeah so the bar is broken. As far as i can see it dosent affect gameplay as it resets when you go edit your organism ( not the cell)
There are a couple of issues that might be related:

It looks like rigidity slider does a divide by zero to end up with ridiculously … wrong numbers when it tries to move when there's exactly 0 MP left. This can be triggered with a very specific MP cost multiplier to be able to place parts to reach 0 MP and then trying to move the rigidity slider.

End result:
So looks like some kind of really low negative number for rigidity comes from somewhere in that case.
It's probably enough to have a call to `Clamp` in the rigidity change callback, but would be nice to know why this happens to evaluate whether other bars in the game are potentially also impacted.
Could you tell step by step what you did before the bug? Did you have modified game settings?
Yep, those issues are the most relevant open issues. Though neither of them is exactly as the issue described, as the issue can happen when the cost per step is too low, for example due to low mutation cost and being in multicellular. There is a fix to that issue by switching to a floating point (instead of a whole number) for the remaining MP, @KasterisK has worked a bit on this, but the changes did not end up being completed:
