Slick.

I too hate this bug. It prevents me from researching Lv3 of things and still get max output per timeunit.

A solution I use is only a very partial one. I set up the Fill Queue button with the facilities at lv2. I use Groups of 7. Then even when you upgrade all things, you can go to each queue, clear it, and add back the LV2 items. This saves you from setting and resetting the Latest button. Once the Fill Queue items are made it will save with your empire. For new games you can adjust that empire for whatever needs to be set and still keep the Fills.

Doing this is still a pain, but with the Clear Queue and Fill Queue buttons it can be a little better. It still allows you to build an Atmosphere plant Lv1 then right before it is finished, use the Upgrade all to change it to an AtmPlant III in mid construction.
