Fixed Promotion ships

[ANSEL]

I loose the promotion ship, every time I go to the shipyard or to the shop ,maybe other places to, haven't tried yet.

Wha? You get the ship and then she.... disappears? Do you have a savegame when you still have her so that we can try?

Save game whit promotion ship.

Fixed with attached file. Extract to your PROGRAM folder.

This will fix future promotion reward ships, but not your current one.
To do that, execute this line through PROGRAM\console.c:

RemovePassenger(pchar, GetCharacter(Cheat_GetCharacterIndex(4)));

Turns out that while the new officer was added as a companion, he wasn't removed as a passenger.
Then the game figured that passengers aren't supposed to have ships and deleted his ship accordingly.

Code allowing you to keep your promotion ships has been included here: http://www.piratesahoy.net/threads/simplified-build-14-beta-3-3-wip-code.23064/page-31#post-496903
Tested and confirmed working. Hopefully this feature will prove to work properly at long last....
