Deathstalker-

I can confirm this behavior. Early on (11/00) most of the modders tried to have a multitude of different ships/classes/sizes but the only thing that consistently worked the way we wanted to list the ships in the order you describe. The designs for my races and some of Daynarr's are setup in this way. The only drawback to this method is that the AI sometimes will have identical designs which still causes the AI to try and upgrade identical designs and thus hang. I think MM tried to fix this a few patches ago, but I do not think all of the kinks are ironed out.
