Edit Reason: Clarification
)
This happens in 2nd Gear, version 2.1.0.2 when designing a vehicle. As soon as I hit "Build" to check the marque assignment on the trim, the pop-up tells me the trim will be done in 5 months, even though the "original" model takes 15 months to design. But the Development Pace slider appears, so I can close the Build pop-up and adjust the development pace. I think that also makes trims way cheaper than they should be.
EDIT: Hmm, it doesn't happen every time. Haven't figured out yet what triggers this behaviour, sorry.

I assume you're building a trim? Trims will take significantly less time than the parent model. If the design is not complete, the trim will only be finished when the parent model is complete.

I know, that's what I'm saying. Normally the "Development Pace" slider is hidden for trims and they finish when the parent model does if you start them in the same month. But something I did caused the Development Pace slider to appear, so I can actually finish trims faster than the parent model, or make it as slow as the original and even cheaper than trims usually are.

Are you sure you were making a trim at that point, and not a new generation or something?

Unless you can change something that changes you from trim to generation within the vehicle designer, I am sure, yes. I've seen the Development Pace slider pop up as soon as I hit "Build". Just don't know what the exact cause was.

Does it happen every time with that vehicle? If so, send me the save game. Thanks.

The issue is fixed, thanks again for the files and reporting it.
The changes will be in the next update.
