Bug in Specialties.

April 1942, playing as Allies.

When I select a US air unit it appears I can purchase the Kamikaze specialty. That should be Japanese only.


Also, in a related manner shouldn't CVs be able to select some get possibly ACE and NAVIGATOR specialties?

#1 If you try to select it the system will tell you that you can't.

#2 Those are specific to land based air units

So are you suggesting:

1. So then, why isn't the option grayed out?

2. Shouldn't these logically be an option for CV's, even though it isn't at this time?

#1 because I am a terrible coder.

#2 because then no one would get the other specialties. These are obviously the best two for CVs hands down. There is nothing else close. There would be no decision to be made. All the other picks are pretty well balanced because things you want to accomplish. Who wouldn't always want Ace CVs or +10% spotting for CV battles. So they aren't included. But with air there are many options that apply to different things equally.
