I am having a blast with this game so far! I am admittedly terrible at it, getting thrashed in each of the two major wars I have been a part of, but hey, as long as I'm having fun, who cares? I was wondering if there was a way to tweak a ship design once it has been finalized. I find myself thinking of a better design quite often after finalizing a design, but I can't seem to figure out how to change the design from there. Every time I try I get an error that says "ships are built to this design. cannot change design." Is there a way to get around this? Thanks in advance!

Right click a ship in your Ships In Service tab and select 'Open a design for rebuild'. You can replace the machinery to free up some extra tonnage and make various other changes. |

Right click a ship in your Ships In Service tab and select 'Open a design for rebuild'. You can replace the machinery to free up some extra tonnage and make various other changes. In the Manual it says you can update guns to a newer version of the same caliber during a rebuild, but it would appear that I can't make my quality -1 12in guns into Quality 0 12in guns during the rebuild. At least, I can't figure out how. Have you figured out that one, or do I need a special tech or something? (Which I think would be a silly reason why I can't do it now.) Edit: figured out the problem. The class I was trying to rebuild happens to have been built in another Nation, and that other nation doesn't have 12in guns of quality 0. My bad for not noticing that one. |

Antediluvian Monster is right, just change the name and you can save it
in general i don't think it's worth upgrading anything on a ship unless it's newer fire control - anything more elaborate than that gets very expensive. but of course it's up to you if you think it's worth it
