Default Re: Uprading ship design (hull relatad)

The upgrade "50% limit" seems a little hokey, but does prevent a cheat I've tried before. My thought was I could build a StarBase with just a Master Computer. Then upgrade to a SB with a MC and a Sphereworld Generator. Then repair it in 1 turn. Sphereworld in 5 turns!!! WRONG!! ...can't be done!! That would have been a killer cheat. However, I have heard of the "incremental" cheat - where you continually upgrade a ship / base over and over on the same turn, increasing the value / cost incrementally each time to circumvent the 50% limit.

Haven't tried it but I think others have...
