...Granted, this might be caused by some special feature of the proportions mod (using non-standard ablities) but it seems equally likely that the AI is grabbing the MC twice in the basic design process. Where are they located in the design? Right at the beginning? Or are they mixed in with the other components? I haven't seen it do this yet, but I've not been playing very much. I hope it's an artifact of Proportions. One MC is expensive enough. Two would make ships outrageously expensive.

It is not Proportion' feature. Several TDM races have "master computer" as a call in design_creation file. It is of course redundant now. I did not check the latest TDM but I'm pretty sure this problem will be taken care soon if not yet. My latest AI files (see below) are purged of "master computer" calls.
