[R&F] [1.0.0.262] RND +1 Naval unit movement lost on upgrade

[acluewithout]

England’s Royal Navy Dockyard provides +1 Movement to Naval Units built in that City.

This movement bonus is lost when the unit is upgraded, which surely is not the intention. It has been reported in a number of threads, including most recently here and tested (again) here.

@FXS_MisterKevin @FXS_Sarah I’m sorry to ping you both but this has been a problem for some time. Can you please pass on this issue to the right person, or provide a confirmation if this is actually working as intended?

You will find this true with all special bonuses provided by buildings where the bonus applies to units trained in that city. For example, the extra XP gain rate provided by barracks, stable, armory, etc. disappears on upgrade, as does the +1 movement for Mongolian horse units trained in an Ordu. It also applies to bonuses obtained from natural wonders (like Spear of Fionne from Giant's Causeway). As this has persisted across patches, it appears to be a FXS design decision, not a bug.
