Status: offline 		Yeah I know, it's probably the worst question ever and I am embarassed, so please be gentle. ;)
I am currently starting a Teekan game as a mercantile guild and I am completely lost on how to build construction ships!
When I go to a construction yard and open the drop-down menu, all ship classes are shown EXCEPT the constructor class. Yet the AI has already suggested to me twice that it would be a great idea to build one!

Is there something I am missing?

Thanks a lot!

You can if you have a planet selected as the construction site.

Not with the new beta patch,you need 100 million in population on the planet before you can now build a colony ship.
