I love the workshop, and I also like to design the units that I will actually use, that are cheap and effective. But I hate my "crew of designers" that will repeatedly, everytime I get a new tech, design a host of less effective and more expensive units. For example: I don't need defense units without trance ability when I can get the same model for the same price WITH trance ability.
And also, for assault units, they are simply worthless without some armor and too expensive with too much armor. But the auto-designers keep producing only the worthless defenseless units or those too expensive models to be built in time, along with duplicates of those models I have already designed myself. The duplicates are really annoying. I keep retiring these models and yet they come back for every new tech that doesn't provide any new unit module.
Another madness from these auto-designers is that they always want to use the latest engine even when it would be most cheap to keep the earlier engines. Which means that most infantry and all non-combat units (scouts, formers, spies, crawlers, colonies) get to cost up to three times that of my own designs.
Isn't there some way to turn off this auto-designing? I don't want to scroll through a bunch of unnecessary prototypes everytime I want to change production in a base. It would be nice to be able to simply design and prototype a new unit when one of my bases are ready for it instead of whenever a new tech is found.
