This is the same issue as reported regarding the NaniteCloudShip ship classes, except it is regarding the ShieldBubbleShip ship classes as follows:
<ShipClass>
<InternalName>AltarianShieldBubbleShip</InternalName>
<DisplayName>TerranAllianceShieldBubbleShip_Name</DisplayName>
<Description>TerranAllianceShieldBubbleShip_Dec</Description>
<ThumbnailOverride>Altarian_Cutter_01T.PNG</ThumbnailOverride>
<ShipHullType>Small</ShipHullType>
<ShipRule>Balanced</ShipRule>
<ShipDesign>Altarian_Cutter_01T</ShipDesign>
<AIShipClass>Frigate</AIShipClass>
<StrategicIcon>Cutter</StrategicIcon>
<BlueprintDef>CutterBlueprint</BlueprintDef>
<BlueprintAugmentDef>BPAugment_ShieldBubbleShip</BlueprintAugmentDef>
</ShipClass>
The BPAugment_ShieldBubbleShip blueprint augment definition does not exist.
Instead, it should be BPAugment_ShieldBubble .
The ship components are appropriately showing up now in the ship designer after this is corrected.
