Summary0024471: Cruisers still count as a shipline for fleet lines bonus.
DescriptionSo cruisers count against the fleet limit bonus. You can test this in the save.

High capacity flagship doesn't work with an elite as the 4th slot.

There is a tutelar tank in the fleet too, and you can swap in shiplines from others fleets to test it out if needed.

Cruiser is being affected by the Tutelar tanks despite the description of the cruisers stating otherwise. I think it's better to leave that in actually. Them not counting toward the limit and being affected by FRS was part of how I envisioned the balance. It's meant as a way to 'encourage' the player toward taking them, thus raising the AIP and making things more interesting. Fleet bonus not working for cruisers and destroyers just feel disappointing. If it hurts balance too much, it'd be better to nerf the cruisers a bit, though right now they're still severely underpowered.

I also want destroyers and cruisers to be affected, because with only 1 per fleet, it encourages splitting FRS ships among multiple fleets if you try to grab multiple. Currently it can often be more efficient to stack FRS ships with different bonus.

Thanks!

* Fixed a bug in the prior version that was causing elite ships to still count against the fleet-wide bonus limiter, when they were not supposed to.
** Please note that elite ships already DO get any bonuses from fleet-wide effects, even those that say non-flagship (elites are not flagships). They don't benefit from something like the high capacity transport, though, since that explicitly only benefits strikecraft. But if there were an elite strikecraft line, that would benefit from the HCT.
