Mount restriction

FYI, Geo, what happens with researching mounts is, they show up in the expected results, but when you research the tech you only get the "XYZ Tech Area Researched" and not the "ABC Mount Discovered"

Ok. Would what I suggested work, ie making a do nothing component called "ABC Mount" just so you get the log message that it's available? THen you wouldn't use the comp, but actually the mount when designing you ships.

That should work, if anyone doesn't like the fact that you don't get the log message that you have a new mount available.

Thanks for the answers. I couldn't answer you guys yesterday, busy at work.

Damn, I was afraid of that. I'll just make a do nothing research thingy available only to that race. This is really a pity. I hope they solved these kind of problems in SE V without making the things you need to edit too much (nobody likes the idea to edit several 100 seperate lines of a components/facility/mount/etc.).
