A "quick-build" button under starbase menu.
Why not have a button to"quick-build" a small freighter with a tech 1 engine? Because it takes several steps to get these ships built it would save a lot of time when visiting those starbases far from battles in late stages of games. It's still a needed step to keep my opponents from building a useful ship, but it's boring and time consuming.

Preset ship designs would be great! I tend to build the same ship type over and over again. not having to manually click components would save some time. or have a button for repeat build, that way you just build the previous ship that was built there.

Better yet. Why not allow the player to save these ship configurations as quick builds.

I agree having this option for just the small freighter you describe would be a waste of effort but a configurable quick build list would be a nice addition.

not sure it is that time consuming to be honest. but your idea makes me think about having some prefered build configs that you can set.
like
small SD! frieghter in your example.
I would also have my preset to include TW Large frieghter, TW Missourri, 8 Disrupts, 6 mk7 tubes etc.
could be configurable and saved per game maybe...
