I designed a class without engines by accident, and even made 2 ships. Now I want to retool my shipyards for a new class with engines. When I go to "Shipyard Complex Activity", however, only the original class is in the drop-down for the Retool for Selected Class activity. I've create a couple other classes, and nothing else shows up. What am I doing wrong? The Design Class window doesn't seem to have a "Save" button; it seems to save-as-you-go.

You need to press the "Lock Design" button when you are ready. That is basically the save, but it also prevents you from ever touching the design again without making a new copy (unless you cheat).

That didn't work, but I think I figured out my problem: my new designs are much larger (since they have engines), and my shipyards are too small for them.

This is not necessary for designs to show up at Shipyards.
There are only two criteria when it comes to filtering that drop-down menu: whether the Shipyard is of correct type (commercial versus naval) and whether it is large enough to accommodate the design.
