Default Re: TechGridder - will it be updated?

That's probably because you selected "Roman Simple" for the naming scheme without having a number after the name in the example component.
If you use "Roman Complex" instead, it will add a new roman numeral to the end of the name.

On simple mode, the gridder translates the Last "word" in the name from roman numerals to an integer so it can add to the number before converting it back.
"Quarters" and "Support" are not valid roman numerals and get a value of zero by default.

You could also add a fake "word" to the end of the name so the simple scheme replaces that instead of the real part of your name.

For the purposes of upgrades, it shouldn't matter. The really large roman numerals just won't show up on screen in roman numerals.
