Prerequisites of saved ship designs?

from GalCiv2 Forums
Hi guys! I recently stumbled across GalCiv2: DL (version 1.0X I think) on my harddisc and jumped into a new sandbox game right away. Now Im a bit puzzled by the follewing: Under certain research achievements on the research screen older ship designs appear along with other prerequisites necessary. But having researched all the necessary advancements the designs still dont appear in the shipyard under the "User" tab. Why is that? Why should the game remember my ship designs from other games at the research screen but not at the shipyard? This doesnt make sense to me. Can anybody fill me in about what I am doing wrong?

You probably need more miniaturization in order to build them.

Geez, this is it! Thanks, kryo. :D

I find it irritating that the level of miniaturization is missing on the list of prerequisites. But now that I know where to look at it is ok I guess...

By the way, is there a way to get rid of previously saved ship designs? Id like to establish a somewhat more logical system of ship designs. :D

Ships for Dread Lord's are saved in My Documents\My Games\GalCiv2\ships.
You can delete them as you wish.

Newer versions do say "needs more miniaturization" on that list, IIRC.
