Triple turrets on CL?

[Deleted]

Game start: 1900

Playing as: Germany

Default arcade budget, large fleet, 60% global research

Problem: What is the point of having triple turrets technology, when you can use the triple turrets even with just double turrets technology for CL? I have about 6 CLs with triple turrets and now I´ve just researched triple turrets. Is there any point of having this specific research in game, or is it just the bug of double turrets research allowing triples as well? 

I´ve just clicked on the "turn" and received information about that pointless research.

I expected triple turrets on CL to be forbidden without relevant technology.

It should be fairly easy to reproduce this bug. 

I would like to point out that this design on the picture is from 1925, commisioned in 1927, but triple turrets for CLs were unlocked officially in september 1930.

I can confirm, triple turrets are allowed before this technology:

Triple turrets on CL 1925 Y 80 12 619 Enables triple turrets on CL

France, 1900  start, small fleet

Save included, design TEST.

Game started prior v1.04, save v1.04

Starting new game in 1920 does not allow triple turrets for CL. But it is without technology of double turrets. So may be issue is there in double turrets for CL technology.

I am in January 1934, playing the french, on 1.04, and I don't have the triple for CLs.

And today, I am now able to build CLs with them.
I unlocked this tech 6 months later.

And do you have double turret technology for CL? Even I was unable to build triples until I researched doubles...

I didn't test it myself, but in my current game I saw British CLs with triple 5" turrets after developing triple turrets myself, and then a few months later I got the option to sell the technology to Britain.

i got the exact same bug i built a cl with 5x3 6 inch guns and 4 months later i got triple turret tech (1 months after i put the cls into production)

It seems that double turrets for CL allows triple turrets too (same as in RTW1).
