Okay, so upgraded center has description saying it can form and send groups of specialists.

This Tier 2 command center description on this screen:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2609917135
It clearly says:
"...enables creation of a TEAMS of specialists..."
So I am just asking - what it enable and where I can find it? It clearly states (thats how you understand it from Polish description of building) that you can create groups of specialists and send them as one "stack" on world map, which would be great when we consider how ♥♥♥♥♥♥ designed world map is (and how glitched as well).

You need to get the automobile facility. From there you can repair/refuel vehicles and create a specialist team to go out to the world map.

Thanks, so they clearly need to change this building description, because it's very misleading.

but you can't send them as one stack on map, to make map movement easier and more player-friendly. You can't do that even in a car, because when you move them in a car you need to make specialists leave car one by one before they can attack. I'd say this is terrible design and I have no idea why it's like that, in general entire world map is designed in awful way.
And about screenshot I translated important part into English.

Heya!

Thank you for posting about this. We had originally intended for the building to do this, so that you could send your Specialists out as a team. We created descriptions based on this behavior and got them translated - but after changing the functionality and the English translation, apparently this did not get re-translated in Polish. I will make sure to highlight this so that it gets retranslated soon.

Apologies for any confusion this has caused and again, thanks for posting this so that we can get it sorted!

Hey there!
Polish version, in general, has many phonetic and spelling errors, I would say way too many to call it a truly professional one. Sometimes it feels like person who did a part of it do not even played game, or even worse - had no idea what's this game about. There's also many places, where much much better term could be used in order to make it feel more "right".
It doesn't turn my grammar-rage (and I have such tendency when it comes to Polish, which is my native language, and I also worked as EN-PL translator), because in general it's a good job, especially when we consider, that there's a lot of text to be translated. I believe there's always a room for improvements.
And please guys, do something with this world map functionalities, because it just doesn't work well right now.

Thank you for letting us know! We have used a professional company for the translations as sadly we do not have any Polish-speaking people working at our office - so we sadly cannot even confirm any issues with the translations but I will forward this feedback to our team and to the translators. Our game does indeed have a massive amount of text in it, so it would make sense that some get translated a little less well as the context might get lost or misunderstood!

As for the World Map functionalities - if you have any specific feedback, we would be more than happy to hear it! :)

Im playing this game almost a year later than this post and translation bugs still exists, I mean why bother giving you a feedback? Even colony upgrade store page isn't updated and there is no info about included expansions. Honestly I don't know what is wrong with you guys.

This game struggle with the same problems like Surviving Mars. I think all that has one simple reason - small team behind both titles. This create walls impossible to breach. We just need to live with these games being always close-to-be-finished, but never really polished. Plus publisher is Paradox, which is very predatory one.
But I believe they deserve support anyway, games itself are not bad. This is a reason why at first I bought game at full price on steam and now colony upgrade.
But I have to admit I have hate-love relation with both their games. :D:
Endgame is a total boredom and massive bugs and irrational mechanisms doesn't help.

Yea, Im in the same boat - love both games, but Joanna said they hired a professional company for translations, imagine in Polish version "prioritize build" is translated as "build later", literally. Add to that not updated store page of colony upgrade (reading reviews I was sure it's only a new radio + 2 buildings for $25, I had to search forums to find out about 3 expansions included). They just don't respect their own work I guess.

I am Polish native as well. All these wrong translations are there because person who made them never played actual game, so he/she was unable to understand context in many situations. I could do all these required translations in right way, because I speak perfectly fluent Polish, but I'll never do such thing for free, because I am simply too old and too smart to work for free, for anyone. From my own experience most of developers like to leech their fanbase in order to save some money. :D:
Oh well, from what I heard this "Colony Upgrade" mean 2 DLC's, I've never heard about 3 DLC's included in it. But I might be wrong.
I was highly disappointed, because I bought some kind of "Founders Edition" at launch, and later I've realized I paid more to get some low quality content in-game, and then I was forced to pay again to get season-pass-like-thing. But when Paradox is responsible for publishing this is what we should expect.

Yea that's what im saying, they can't even sell their own product properly, here's quote from another steam forum thread (I believe it was Joanna, I might be wrong):

The Colony Upgrade DLC does include an Expansion Pass, which includes the first three full DLCs that we will release in the future
