Ship designer: do not untick DP for non-gun refit

[mobeer]

With the following:

- foreign country has 5" DP researched and at best Improved Director

- local country does not have 5" DP researched, but does have Advanced Director

- ship built in foreign yard with 5" DP and Improved Director

Then if I then try to refit the ship in my local yard, I can fit Advanced Director but the 5" guns have the DP tickbox disabled and unticked.

Does this mean the resulting ship will have 5" single purpose guns after refit? - it seems to imply this to me.

Could the ship designer be changed so that for the refit the DP tickbox is ticked for the ship and can be unticked but not ticked again?

I think this is an unintended consequence of an earlier fix: there had been issues with auto-built ships having the DP box checked despite the nation in question not having DP, and grayed out because the nation in question having DP, resulting in autobuilds that were unusable, because the player couldn't uncheck DP to make them legal. So the devs changed the ship designer to force DP to off when not legal.

This is the worst part of programming: You have something that looks straightforward, so you code up a straightforward rule. Inevitably, your users discover that there's a bug, because the rule needs to have an exception. So you code up the exception, and the users find an exception to the exception. So you code that up, and the users find...

same thing happens with Cross Deck Fire, can't be removed and can't be retrofit in your own yards if the ship has it
