Civilian ships not upgrading

[fistfullobeer]

My civilian fleet is not upgrading. I've had the skip drive and now the warp drive for several years but all the civilian ships are still only using ion drives. I have the the design and retrofit all set to automatic for these civilian ships and they are active. I also have several construction yards available. Why are the civilian ships not upgrading? Thank you.

Does the Civilian economy have money?

It is easy to bankrupt them with Mining stations and other stuff with Upkeep.

Yes, lots more than me. Over 3million space bucks.

Could you put the savegame in a zip file and upload it?

P.S.: I currently can not upload. Hopefully it is just broken for me.

No, the file is too large but here's a google drive link

It's most likely a resource shortage....GP

I do have production shortages, but I have plenty of stocked resources. And I have another game I started where I am having the same issue, and I don't have any production shortages of the necessary resources in that game. I am wondering if there is a policy setting? I set almost everything to manual and I don't see anything that would override the AI's ability to build ships.

You do not have a single unit of Mebnar at your Planet.

My guess is you used it all up on State Ships and station building, before your civil ships could upgrade to even skip drive.

Propably the 11(eleven!) stations you build before the first freighter even had a Skip drive.

Like I said resource shortage....GP
