that when I upgrade a ship, my previous design vanishes. So far, so good. Only, it's a pity to see that it vanishes even if I had ships in service realized upon that old design. I mean, it's wonderful that your "Chubby Light Fighter 1" disappear when you upgrade it to version 2, but if you have already built some "Chubby Light Fighter 1", they appear no more in the ships' list, nor in the shipyard one, so you have to look for each one of them, in order to choose between disbandig, upgrading or sending them boldly against that Drengin Dreadnought headed for your better planet so as to take a shot of its delightful lilies.
I don't know if it is a bug or not, but would it be an exxagerate "desiderata" suggesting to have the game recognize if there are ships based on the design you are going to update and, if yes, do not erase the old version from the shipyard's list?
Thanks.
