Default Re: Upgrading durring production? Did I miss a cha

It was exploitative; you could build ships with technology you do not have at the beginning of the consturction cycle just by editing the design after the new item is researched and before the ship is completed. To do that legitimately, you have to expend more resources on maintenance and retrofit costs after the ship with old tech is built. When you could edit unbuilt designs in queues, this legitimate mechanism was subverted.
