Re: SEV question - new design tech levels?
Since construction points spill over to the next project now, there is much less purpose for using older components for build cost optimization.

On ships after the 1st..that 1st ship however will (potentially) take longer to complete.

Re: SEV question - new design tech levels?
Only if you start from an empty queue. Whatever points are remaining after the previous item will spill over to that first ship.  |

Re: SEV question - new design tech levels?
True..but then again, my queues spend more time empty than full, so it's a valid problem for me..

Re: SEV question - new design tech levels?
Well, I'd like the option to use older versions of components in new ships. In SEIV, from time to time I don't use the latest version of everything on my new ships because:
(1) The latest version is more expensive and I want to save on maintenance cost
or
(2) I'm building a ship that I intend to trade with another empire and I don't want to give them my latest technology.
