+If you choose to continue with the advanced designer, it will work exactly like the advanced designer when designing new vehicles. Unfortunately, there is no way to switch to the Assisted designer.
+When making design changes, please note, you will only get the generation discount while the sliders are within a reasonable limit of the parent model. If you make the new generation significantly better, you will lose the new generation discounts. Although if you changed out the chassis, this won't matter. If you did not change the chassis, please keep an eye on the design costs while you are adjusting sliders.

+If you plan on making modifications to your component designs, the game gives you the option to make new generations of the vehicle using these designs with the “Refit” system.
+To use the refit system, you must check the “Refit Old Designs” checkbox before modifying the component. Click the “Modify” button (#2) when you're ready to modify the component. This action will open the Refit window.

+The refit window is broken into two parts. The vehicles that were using the design are in the left list (#1). Vehicles entries that are yellow have already had a new generation designed recently. Selecting a vehicle from the list will load its information. In the center-right section, you'll find the costs and buttons to make the new generation (#2, #3). The "New Generation" button will create a New Generation of this vehicle, using the same components like the previous generation, except with the latest revisions. The "New Generation and Replace" button (#3) will do the same, except it will also replace the old design with the new design in all factories and branches. And it will end the production of the old design.

+If you plan on modifying more than one component, you should modify two of the components before modifying and refitting the third component. Otherwise, if you refitted and made a new generation after making modifications to the first component, you'll be unable to use the modifications of the other two components in a new generation until next year. The game will only allow you to make one new generation of a vehicle per year. So complete your modifications first before refitting.
