AON armor layout not unlocking on time in 1.00.35

[GeneralNukeEm]

The research data file says that AON is supposed to unlock without deviation in 1911 (and in previous versions of the game it did). It is now 1918 and I have moved beyond where AON armor is supposed to be in my research but AON still isn't available. Game was started on 1.00.35

However, it looks like the AI can still unlock AON armor when looking at what designs can be built in foreign yards.

Edit - it finally unlocked in 1919. What is going on?

Thanks for the report. Do you mind uploading the save with what you're seeing?

Do you happen to be playing with the tech variation option turned on at all?

[GeneralNukeEm]

Tech variation was slight. Save game attached here, although this is much later in the game (after AON unlocked) so not sure how useful it is.

Hold on, when did AON get switched to 100%? It always used to be 60%.

I see, you are correct - I misinterpreted/misremembered the research files.
