Retraining L7 officers to <5 elite skills is permanent
« on: March 09, 2025, 03:49:16 AM »

Verified without mods in 0.97a-rc11: If you take a L7 officer, with its 5 elite skills, and retrain it to have, say, only 3 elite skills, and confirm it, then 3 becomes its new permanent maximum number of elite skills—the panel shows "Elite: 3/3".  This is true even if you take it down to 0—it'll show "Elite: 0/0", and indeed it will forbid you from selecting more than 0 next time you retrain.

I suspect that a fix for this will raise the question, "Is the max number of elite skills for L7 officers supposed to be affected by Officer Training and Cybernetic Augmentation?".  Currently the answer is no.

Thank you for the report, fixed! (By now allowing "retrain" to be confirmed with less than the maximum number of skills.)

Right, just confirming that that's the intended behavior.
