Re: RTW3: v1.00.88 Public Beta Now Available

Upgrading (-2) quality guns
Are those supposed to be up-/sidegrade-able at all?
When I tried to "flip up" to 14in (which are not avaiable - "X") and then back down to 13in again, the game said:

But I was able to replace 13in(-2) with 12in(0) guns, IIRC this was not ...

Do you happen to have a save you could share showing this?

Sadly I was on the battle result screen when I noticed most things, and you can't save then, but only go back to the "main game", and the access to the battle data is gone.

torpedo flats get damaged by what must have been HE splinters/hits (I had a battle with all ships only using HE ammo), although they should be under the waterline (no direct HE hits) and protected by B/D.

IMHO,
Planet generation needs to get looked into - e.g. Morgana class planets can get too warm:

After I finally got me Oceania, I started a new game with 1.26k2.
Rolled me a near-earthlike Morgana with a nominal temperature of 60°C and very moderate rainfall.

8in Hull hit B* (HE) on 4in 1890 armour - lucky roll?

I had a 8in 1893 Melinite HE shell penetrate the 4in belt of a 1890 starting ship.

I don't think I've ever seen a HE shell do that in Rtw3 before, or in RtW2 with a 1900 start.

Has something changed? 1-in-1000000 roll?

Issue(s):
Russia (AI) is using 1899 (1900 start) designs in 1892.
Presumably started with.

And it's NOT only the wrong date shown, judging from the quality of the ships - those are at least 1900 ships:
