    Is this intended? Is there a place in my Starmade folder I can find and delete these so I can re-use names?

    I ran across this bug last night. It has to be a bug, it makes no sense as an intended feature.

    There are no bugs in SM, only unintended features. /s
    You can go into your SM installation and go to the blueprints folder. From there you may be able to delete previous ships, but I'm not sure that will fix the issue.

    It's not a blueprint. It's a shipyard design. And the problem is it has already been deleted.

    Yeah, if we have to come up with a new name for every design update because the old one was deleted its gonna get confuzzling real fast.

    I really hope someone notices this and addresses it.

    I have also come across this issue. Has anyone else had this issue? I created a shipyard for a class of ship, designed to fit the ship perfectly with lots of room to spare. If I create a design from a blueprint it'll dock. If I unload the same design and re-load it, the ship suddenly now doesn't fit. (so the game says).

    EDIT: removing and replacing the yard anchor (in the same spot) fixes it for one use. Adding to bug tracker. I mean the unintended features tracker.
