Oh, this is weird. When I imported my saved ships to the "Unofficial Ships" sheet of the RC31 version and loaded my
Martian “Gas” Station the "Calculate Troop Strength" option was off as it should be, but when I clicked the "Hide Unused Rows" checkbox it was turned on. Huh?

Then you can reload this before you start a new ship.

So basically create a template ship (not a dummy, we have to be smart about this ;) ) with all the Design Switches & Features and Campaign Settings preset but no systems or size defined (setting the TL and the name should be okay) and save it? Makes sense. I was thinking that the Campaign Setting was an independent entity from the ship but I guess it doesn't have to be if a template can be used. Just have to remember to save the template with the focus on the Design Table so that will appear when I reload it and change the name and SM immediately after that.
