Thank you torpedobait!

The "blind chimp" explanation is originally from Ducimus in about 2008, trying to explain the same situation. Too bad he's not around to ask for verification that he saw any upgrades at all taking place when the mission was started before the equipment availability.

In the real war, some upgrades necessitated installation back in the States, so if it was a pressing need that the boat remain available for missions, they might not take the trip to San Fransisco for that new piece of equipment for awhile.

I'm not going to question CapnScurvy's hunch that the game is illiterate, rather than employing a virtual blind chimp. He's been proven right very often.

Has anyone noticed that this mod team has discovered more stock game issues that nobody has ever talked about than anybody ever has? Ducimus, Lurker, the RFB team (featuring LukeFF) never mentioned these issues. It's a measure of the quality of the Fall of the Rising Sun Ultimate team that these stock game issues have been found, and that some of them have been corrected.

This one looks like it's not fixable, but don't count our Capn out yet!
