Upgrading Ships, Bug??

from GalCiv2 Forums
Ok, I'm playing a sandbox game, Normal Difficulty, Custom Race. Here's the problem I'm having. Whenever I try to upgrade my ship designs everything is too cheap! I have a lot of miniaturization techs but those are just suppose to add more space aren't they? And they do. When I make a New ship I get the extra space and that's it. But if I upgrade an old ship, new components only take up half the space they are suppose to. I haven't actually tried to construct one of these ships because of the cheese factor but this bug is very annoying.

Have you upgraded your ship components since you build the old ship? If so, they've gotten smaller. Why don't you try to construct a ship and see what their size is then?

For me I tried to do a freighter upgrade and of course the game wouldn't upgrade the damn "too slow " freighters. They should be upgradeable just like anything else as long as it is the same hull size and type.

It's the same components but I have more miniaturization so I wanted to put some more engines on. If anything it seems they got bigger. I distinctly remember them being size 8 earlier in the game and now they are size 10. However, it only costs that much if I make a new ship. If I try to upgrade a design everything takes up half of the space that it's suppose to.
