And warp bubble is still not added to each ship. I have to manually edit each and every one of them which is a pain to do.
Unfortunately, I believe this is currently "working as designed". When you auto-upgrade a design, the code looks through the components and checks if you have the ability to build a more advanced component that is on the upgrade path for the component - and replaces it if it finds one. With no-warp ships, there is no warp engine to replace - so the auto-upgrade code replaces nothing with nothing.
Sucks, but that's how it's designed.
Should Elliot change the behaviour? I absolutely agree with you.
