As of now, Ship Designing is still somewhat of an inconvenience, especially for someone who intends to build a custom race, with all custom-made ships from scratch. I was wondering if it'd be possible to implement an update that would allow the following .
- There is a "Ship Designer" option in the main menu
- When creating a custom made race, there is an option to "add ships" into it's fleet. For example, say I made a custom scout, I could then add my custom scout into the race's fleet and so on. If there happened to be a ship from a civilization already in game, well, you could add them too if you really liked it.
- Have the game already upgrade the ships for you. Every time a new technology is researched, the locations of the "default" weapons should be instantly replaced by the upgraded version of the weapons/attachments.
