Core Ship Designs with false components when modified

from GalCiv2 Forums
In some of my games when I go to modify a core ship design, I'll often end up with components on there that I haven't researched yet. For instance, I commonly have phasors stuck onto my Defenders when I first go to modify them. They don't seem to be taking up space and I can't re-add them once they're removed. I have yet to build one of these and try using it Free phasors can't be all that bad.

This isn't a serious bug or a very annoying one, but a bug nonetheless.

Are you loading ships from a previous game build? If so that can happen. Unfortunately you need to delete them on the update. Fixed these days i believe but it was a problem in past updates!

No, this isn't a bug.
They are entirely cosmetic and part of the design. You must have noticed that the Defenders still only has 1 attack from it's Particle Beam component?

So the only bug is that the tooltips for these fake components are incorrect. It would be better if they had the tooltips that all other Extras has.
