All nations to start 1900 with smaller battleships

[TheOtherPoster]

For most navies I think it would be more realistic a legacy fleet of up to 12000t or even less in 1900 (and also it will force us to make very risky design choices which is always fun)

I've tried it reducing all countries' dock size before starting the game but it didn't work.
-. If I let the AI to build my own fleet the game just freezes! (playing USA, 11000t dock size)
-. If I build my own legacy fleet, it doesn't freeze but other navies somehow still get over 14000 and 15000t ships in their legacy fleets as before.

Can anybody help?

Is there any other way to get all navies to start with smaller battleships?

You probably can remove some of the base designs in the idf folder

The joy of copy and paste

Thank you for your help seawolf
I've done it this way:
1. I create a new design, save it and exit the game.
2. Then I go to the save folder, select the right game and open the file of the ship I have just created and copy it.
3. Then I go to the idf folder, I open the file of the design I want to replace (If replacing an US battleship design then that's a B0U file) and paste over it the data of my design. I delete the ship's name and that's done
