[1.0.0.194] Problems with ship upgrades and Lysefjord

[Emptiness]

[1.0.0.194 (313929)]

Problem: Ship upgraded adjacent to Lysefjord loses xp.

See attached save. Upon load, a privateer armada adjacent to Lysefjord will be selected. The unit has already received and selected the free upgrade from Lysefjord, and currently has 96 xp. If you pay to upgrade the unit to a submarine while adjacent to Lysefjord the resulting unit will have only 15 xp. If you upgrade the unit to a submarine anywhere not adjacent to Lysefjord then the resulting unit will have 96 xp, as it should.

Note that both results produce a unit with the same promotions, and the same xp threshold for the next level (150 xp). The difference is how much more xp must be gained to level, ie 54 or 135.

I assume that the upgrade process is somehow being interrupted by a failed attempt to trigger the Lysefjord upgrade on the "new" unit, which is overwriting the unit's intended xp total with the xp total for a 0 xp unit that has just received a free boost (ie 15 xp).

Upgrading a naval vessel adjacent to Lysefjord should have the same result as upgrading that unit anywhere else. Specifically, a naval unit upgraded while adjacent to Lysefjord should result in an upgraded unit with the same amount of xp that the unit had before the upgrade.

Problem: Upgraded ship moved adjacent to Lysefjord receives boost to next level even though that boost has already been received prior to the upgrade.

Using the saved game posted above, move the initial privateer armada away from Lysefjord and upgrade it to a submarine. On the next turn, move the upgraded unit back to a tile adjacent to Lysefjord and note that the unit receives a boost to the next level.

This unit has already received a free boost from Lysefjord once. I believe that the Lysefjord boost is intended to take place only once, not once each time the unit is upgraded. Apparently the "new" unit spawned by the unit upgrade does not remember that it has been upgraded by Lysefjord prior to the upgrade. This situation can potentially be exploited to result in multiple free upgrades to each naval unit over the course of the game, especially if the player has access to Lysefjord from early in the game.
