One of my races uses 2 different WP's and calls for them by name in the construction_units.txt file. The race definately builds both designs, but I cannot tell you whether calling for them by name is the reason.

Well, Construction_units.txt does NOT use names The call for item should use standard unit names otherwise it is ignored. I also had a situation where two different WP designs were build but it is a consequence of "rotating ship design" - for description see the current AI Deathmatch Contest topic.
Pitty. I was hoping to make a most formidable planet defence for Proportions AI.
