#77 Duration B Bug

[Leon Baradat]

There's a bug that applies a skipped-duration penalty to your first Duration mission (which is usually B, hence the name), even if you aren't skipping any duration levels. It's supposed to penalize you 5 points per level skipped: so if you've flown only the suborbital and orbital, which are Dur A, then schedule a Dur C mission, you should face a 5-point penalty--or a 10-point penalty if it's a Dur D mission, etc.

This is an old bug that dates back to BARIS. It got worse in RIS, though--sometimes it would keep applying the spurious duration penalty to *every* duration mission you scheduled throughout the game.

Until the bug can be tracked down and fixed, I've disabled the duration penalty system in RIS. It's better to not have it at all than to have it malfunctioning that way.
