Does this mean the only way I can get new officers is too recruit them within SH3? If so, is there any way to change this?

Thank you,

EDIT - I just noticed I have the same issue when trying to promote a salior to P.O. too.


Great question. Iv'e always wondered the same thing but forgot to ask.
Let's hope there's a fix or small mod from GWX or Jscones.
I'm not sure I'll get this exactly right (as I was Special Forces and not a squid :p )

I think the problem is that you cannot promote out of their classification. You have seamen, warrant officers and commissioned officers. You can't promote a seaman to a warrant officer, or a warrant officer to a commissioned officer.
