Hi and welcome in the forum. It's been a while since I played the old 1.3, so could you please give a bit more information? Which GC you played and where you built the large shipyard? Is the icon too build the ship there, but greyed, then it could be you have too less resources/credits, is it not visible then you need tech level 5 I think.
