===DAC / Rank / Info===
{{Screenshot|[[File:ClassDesign_DAC.png]]|state=collapsed}}

This tab contains miscellaneous information. '''Minimum Rank and Class Priority''' is used to set the minimum naval officer rank required to command the ship. The numerical edit box allows setting a priority for the class. Classes with a higher assigned priority will be chosen first when commanders are being assigned, meaning the best commanders get the highest priority ships. Set is used to enter a value into the database after it is entered.

'''Name Type''' allows setting a theme for this class which will be used for the default names of members of the class when queued at a shipyard.

'''Eligible additional classes''' if this is a primary class for a shipyard lists the classes that can be built without retooling if a yard is tooled to produce the currently selected ship design. Here you can see a yard tooled to design the Surigao can also build the Samar. Refit Cost From is used to view the refit cost required to refit a ship in the dropdown class to the currently selecte class. Refitting an Ascendency-class colony ship into a Surigao DE would cost 97.5 BP, which is 55% the cost of a new Surigao. Effectively half the ship would have to be discarded and rebuilt.

'''Additional Information''' allows saving notes about the class. Press Save after entering your notes to save them to the DB.

The '''Damage Allocation''' chart shows how [[Internal Damage|internal damage]] is rolled. A "die" with sides equal to the number of hull-spaces on the ship is rolled and compared against the DAC. Damage is applied to the selected component. If electronic damage is inflicted (from high power microwave weapons), damage is rolled on the Electronic-Only DAC.
