I have designed many ships before and never had a problem until recently. I tried to make something exceptional and constructed a ship with perhaps 100+ extras. It looks gorgeous! Now I'm psyched to load it up with weapons and actually use it in gameplay. There's the rub. When I try to add more than 7 weapons, things go haywire. These odd lines appear like cables connecting various components. Other components disappear. My ship essentially starts to fall apart and literally cracks start appearing. My only thought is that there is some sort of limit to how many items you can put on a design. Has anyone else run up against this before? Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance for your help!
