COO switch product, even though its prohibited in settings

[bob]

Hello.

My COO is set up to only handle training, advertising and prices. The feature to switch products is disabled. I'v setup a production and sales line for a brand new product, which I'v pumped before in tech, just to realize, that my stupid COO switched it to other products, while my new one started to rot.

Look for better supplies: no
Look for better products to sell in retail stores: no

Hello. I can do this today after work.

When I noticed, that the COO messed it up in many cities, I quit the game because it was to annoying to fix it and he kept changing it. I have a save, which is exactly before I'v placed the new factories and/warehouses and retails. I just downloaded a brand new version of CL before yesterday: v2.7.22.

I could reproduce the problem. The issue is different from my first assumption, but it is still an issue:

- Product linked in retail store has become obsolete.
- No notification was given.
- COO randomly link products in retail store.

It should be rather:

- Notification that a product has become obsolete. Like the one you get when R & D has ben completed.
- If COO is set not to look for products, the links should be removed, but not replaced by some products randomly.

Still the save attached. It happens about 12. SEP 2001. I have in all but one city a store with mobile phones. They get switched once the phone becomes obsolete.

Please try the post-release beta v3.3.02D (which has improved many AI issues) and see if the issues still exist in the latest version.
