Game to Game Ship Design Carryover Bug

[Aristoi]

I've found that the saving of design files from game to game with a race is nothing but annoying. All it means is that I am forced to obsolete many designs before I can play. There should be a way to not export the designs when you save the race.

This leads me to an appearant bug. If you export a race and then remove a special tech they had (one that you used in the previous game on your ships), you get the message warning that your ship design has tech you don't understand. When I make them obsolete, no problem for that turn. But the next turn, they somehow un-obsolete themselves and clutter up my design list again.

The only way to get rid of them us to manually go in and remove all the special tech from them and then save the new design. This can be a real pain with a few dozen old designs from a previous game.

Has anyone else noticed this?
