Question about ship design

[rockmedic109]

Or about the end result anyway.

I just had a class of armored cruisers get completed as being slightly overweight. I don't remember the design being overweight, but when the first ship was launched, the pop up window said it was overweight. I've had ships fail to meet and exceed their designed speed and this is obvious enough for me to understand.

But if they are built overweight? What are the effects? I considered them a failure at the overweight window and never built any more. However, when used in battle, I never saw any problems.

The only effect is that they have slightly less flotation than they would usually have.

Thanks.

Makes sense.

Something I come limited in.....
