Issue description
I’m experiencing a naval progression issue in Captain of Industry and I’d like to know if anyone has encountered something similar.
Context:
Game started after Update 3
Map created using the in-game map editor (custom terrain)
Initially custom difficulty (later switched back to normal for testing)
Around 60 hours into the save
The problem:
My ship has:
2x Cannon I
Command Module I
Full crew
Enough fuel
However, during any combat (even a 70-score Scout), the battle report says:
“The ship retreats due to lack of usable weapons.”
The ship never fires.
What I have checked:
Not a cargo capacity issue
Not a munitions issue (I have no shell recipe available)
There is no “Artillery” research in my tech tree
I see no technology related to naval ammunition
All remaining “?” nodes on the world map are behind combat nodes
It looks like the military/naval branch may never have been properly generated.
Hypothesis:
Since the map was fully created using the map editor, I’m wondering whether the automatically generated world map may be missing some progression triggers (Artillery / Radar), making naval progression impossible.
Questions:
Can a fully custom terrain map generate an incomplete world map?
Is this a known issue related to maps created in the editor?
Is there any way to unlock naval progression without restarting the entire save?
Thanks in advance for any help 🙏
