Yeah. Probably just an oversight that wasn't noticed 'til now 'cause not many comms spring for enh carriers instead of, say, saving up for SY.

Carriers need a SY to dock.NightRychune wrote:QUOTE (NightRychune @ Jan 15 2010, 12:38 AM) Once you buy them, they should not be tied to having a garrison/starbase in order for subsequent carriers to launch as Enh, like cons and miners. Currently, if you buy Enh carriers and lose your garrison, any subsequent carriers that are built launch as standard.
Get a SY to upgrade your old carriers.
I don't think we gonna allow caps to dock at garrison.

Did you read what he's posted? He's saying that without a garrison, any NEWLY BUILT carriers will be standard carriers - even if you had previously researched enh carrier under garrison - which is different behavior from enh cons and miners (for which the upgrade is kept and applied to all new miners/cons even if the garr is destroyed). Well, I've never had a garr destroyed before my techbases, so I'll take his word regarding this behavior.

(upgrading won't be possible ofc)

Usually though, "skill" is used to covertly mean "match the game exactly to my level of competence." Anyone who is at all worse than me should fail utterly (and humorously!) and anyone better is clearly too caught up in the game and their opinions shouldn't count.
