Thanks!

I am having a little problem with 2.0 at the moment however. Maybe I've run into a bug...

In any event, it's with the ECM component. No matter how high I research combat support, the availible ECM component remains at level "1a". I mean, it keeps telling me after I've researched to a new level that ECM II etc. is availible, but when I go to upgrade or add the component, it's perpetually "1a"...?

Yes, I originally had it so that various types of electronic warfare (EW) components would appear with "show only latest", but a player noticed that this had the unacceptable side-effect of making their effects stackable. So, I had to remove that luxury. Now, in order to see all the variants of EW components available, the player must un-check the "show latest only" button.

As with several aspects of Proportions, there is an unclear choice presented between different components to deploy. In a sense, the Ia is better than the mark II in that it is smaller and cheaper. From another perspective, the II is better because it has the greatest effect.
