In the beginning I could build destroyers, but after some time they disappeared from the latest/non-obsolete design screen:

Try scrolling up? It's probably up there somewhere. Otherwise, all of your destroyers are obsolete and you have to design a new one.

Thanks for the response, but I'm not stupid

. I filtered on role. These are my only military designs that are non-obsolete. I've auto ship design on. So the AI should always have a destroyer imho.

Well, then, maybe he just hasn't bothered to make one yet. The AI's autodesigning isn't instantenous, or I'd never be rid of his useless defense bases.

I have seen this, it's because your designs have become too big for your building abilities. You simply are not able any more to build destroyers because they are too big ;)

Use the filtering option "show non obsolete designs" ;) and launch a crash program in construction :D

I was playing on auto, so let the AI take care of research and design. Apparently the upgrade to the shipyards came very late. I didn't need large military ships yet (since I was not planning on going to war, so you would only get additional maintenance costs).
