TCP/IP Games, Ship Designs lost? HELP ME BAD

How about every time you make an empire file for a human, you make a high-tech game and create "template" ship designs just like that, using the lowest tech available, and then save the empire file. Then, once you get the shipbuilding tech to build the ships, you just upgrade the design so that it will automatically use the highest technology you have available at the time?

That could work too, and then copy the template to create a new design, changing the ship size as needed. More work before the game starts, but at least doable right now.

Well, actually, if you just did it for all the empires you have and use now, it's not a problem. Plus, I would imagine that if you just edited an empire rather than creating a new one, the designs should stay, so you wouldn't have to do it each time you made a new race. ^_^
