Spelling in a line of syntax in BNat1920.dat is duplicated

[dizzy]

Under Great Britain you'll see below where the default DL version of the game and the 1.08 update both have dual entry for BTL3 with different tech numbers.

BTL1=1320

BTL2=1803

BTL3=627

BTL3=109

If this is not a bug and this actually works in game, why is it not BTL4=109 instead of BTL3=109? And can the game handle BTL5, BTL6, etc in case I want to create a mod for a nation with tech advantages? If a nation has 4 tech advantages, should the fourth be named BTL3 in keeping with the established example above or should it be corrected to BTL4? How does this work?  Thank you

That is an error. The second BTL3 should be deleted in the Britain File. Thanks for reporting this.

If there is a fourth bonus tech for a nation it should be numbered BTL4. There are no higher numbers than 4.

I'm just going to piggyback on this thread since it's related but with [v. 1.12] when I click on new game for Great Britain, for both 1900 and 1920 starts, the first bonus tech is blank.  This is how it appears on screen:


Research advantage: Ship design
Research advantage: Radar and electronics
Bonus tech:
Bonus tech: Flight deck
Bonus tech: All forward main armament

Looking in the BNat1900 and 1920 files for Great Britain the first bonus tech is listed as BTL1=1320.  As far as I can tell, there is no tech in the ResearchAreas2 file that has 1320 as an ID number.  1320 got skipped in the Fleet Tactics area. (I also double checked that none of the 1300 ID numbers were duplicated and they aren't)  Integrated CIC at 1319 would seem to be an appropriate choice for Great Britain but of course you may have had another tech in mind altogether.     

I checked the other nations for both start dates and that was the only one where I saw a blank Bonus Tech listed.    

[Edit - Do you want me to make a new thread with the [v. 1.12] tag to make it easier to track if it is a typo/bug?]

I just recently created a new thread for the issue you mentioned above (here: nws-online.proboards.com/thread/4018/potential-british-bonus-tech-issues ) if there is anything you think needs to be added then it might be helpful to add it to that thread.
