v0.50.0 aerospace pilots in conventional aircraft #4649

Closed DynamicWorlds closed 1 month ago

DynamicWorlds commented 2 months ago

Environment

v0.50.0-SNAPSHOT (2024-08-12 evening's nightly) Win 10 Java Vendor: Eclipse Adoptium Java Version: 17.0.11

Description

The game allows assigning aerospace pilots to conventional aircraft, but seems to show the wrong skills when deployed to the briefing room. I currently have a 4/5 aerospace pilot who is registering as a 7/8 pilot in a conventional aircraft. I'm not sure if that should be 4/5 or 8/8 or if he should not be able to be assigned as the pilot at all, but it seems that something is off. Temp Temp2

From discussion on Discord we've concluded the ability for Aero pilots to fly conventional was likely a legacy decision with no basis on current rules. So we're going to take a look at bringing it in line with RAW though that won't be in 50.0 due to the likelihood any fix will have unforeseen knock-on effects.
