hi,
I've a couple of questions:
I know how to upgrade ships to upgraded designs. Now, I can upgrade unit design, too. Is there a way to upgrade existing units to those upgraded designs?
Created units are put to the planet cargo. Are these units going to be active in combat when the planet is invaded, or do I have to activate them any way?
Thanks




I assume you are talking
I assume you are talking about 'Retrofitting' existing units right? As far as I know there isn't any way to upgrade units (Boy would I love that functionality, but with thousands of units it can get expensive
). It was the same way in SE:IV, you could upgrade everything except for already created units.
Any unit in cargo (except for Satellites & Mines) automatically get activated for combat when the planet is attacked. This means your that once the enemy units enter that sector any Fighters in cargo get launched and weapons platforms start selecting targets and firing (when in range).
Hope that helps you
