This isn't right. If you make any new ship type (say missile ship) it gets Don't Get Hurt. But if you use a default one, say Attack Ship, it gets Optimal Weapon range. Troop transports get Drop Troops, colony ships and pop transports get Don't GEt Hurt, etc.

I think he means that the existing ones are hard-coded, and any additional (modded) entries get assigned Optimal Firing Range (or whatever pre-existing designType you happen to have listed first)
