'unlimited' appears when an equipment option becomes available and you have, as yet, not upgraded. For instance, when Bold first becomes available if you have not upgraded to having the Bold decoy you will see two options: Bold1 and unlimited, with unlimited being highlit. That's because unlimited is now used in the weather callout (ex. visibility unlimited). If you open up the GWX 2.0 .pdf document and do a search for 'unlimited' you'll get a better explanation. :p

Basically 'unlimited' means there is an upgrade now available but you don't have it yet.

Tis to do with the weather
Dont ask me why it shows on the upgrade screen but it does

The weather used to say - Fog - None
The None showed up on the upgrade screen and you took it as no more upgrades

Now the weather says visibility - unlimited
Yep the unlimited shows

There is no link we could find that would display that line in the upgrade screen

I was gonna say that but I wasn't quit sure.

And I prefer USA Light cigs by the way.
So when you find Dawn?
I'm ready for that Bullet.

Sounds to me like an attempt at data normalisation by the devs. The concept being to minimise data duplication.

However, if the data is used for different purposes, then this problem can occur if subsequent changes are made. But, I'm guessing the devs considered most of this file as static.

No, not dumb.
Just really, really smart.
I'm the dumb one cause I didn't read your post.
They shoot me at Dawn anyway.

Welcome to the world of the strange.

Thanks for clearing that one up.
