Default Re: Ministers and Organic Weapons

Well even when you hit the upgrade button in the ship building screen there is a few things that don't work optimally. I find its much better to upgrade manually using copy. If you don't and you have researched a level 2 or 3 engine then that is changed on your design also. That saves money on ships that aren't yet built but causes needless delay and unessesary expence while upgrading ships that are already built. The only use of level 2 and 3 engines is a small reduction in initial price. If you hit the upgrade button then upgrade your ships after researching an engine with no speed increase you will just pay more and wait longer for the ship to upgrade. Also if you have researched a new technology that you wish to incorperate the computer has no way of knowing that. This is especially apparent if you use weapons such as Organic that change names as it goes up in levels. Also the change in shields from 30KT at level 1 to 40KT at level 2 will trip you up.
