Can't Make Global Pacifier for some reason

[Whiskey Wight]

I'm playing on Iron Man Mode to get achievements. I already got one for using the World Cracker on an enemy's capitol. But now when I go to ship designer to swap out the World Cracker for the Global pacier, it just puts on the Nueron Sweep instead.
Do I not have the option anymore? Do I need to play a xenophilic or pacifist empire to get the Pacifier? Am I missing a tech? What's going on here?

I think you only develop one weapon with the collossus project but you can research the other weapons afterwards.
That would mean you have to research the Global Pacifier.

Doesn't look like there's any restriction on researching it.

What type of empire are you playing?

fanataic materialist / egalitarian technocracy (democracy). I _seem_ to have the pacfier unlocked in technology, but it just one stick on. Even when I delete the ship and build it again with it in the weapon slot

I assume you're not using auto-generated designs?

No. I used the world cracker then mannually put (or tried to put) the pacifier on mannualy in the ship designer

That's the problem, i already have. I'm looking at right now in the list of technologies I already researched.
It just wont stick on for some reason

did you tried to install it in the ship designer ? normally you can click on the colossus weapon slot to open a menu with all researched components available , when i do this all of them show up and i can change them without issue

That's exactly what I've been doing. But for whatever reason it puts on the Nueron Sweep rather than the Pacifier

Okay I figured i out.
Turns out I need to _save_ the ship design to get the weapon slot I want. (why this put the nueron sweeper on without saving despite not selecting it, I dunno. None the less, it's solved.)
Thanks everyone for your help.
