Ah yeah, correct.
That bug will be corrected very soon though. (it is allready corrected, so to speak)
But you can uninstall the game and just start over if you want, with 1.1 and the original ME and so on.
Just make sure you save your profiles when it asks you during the uninstall process.
And you can also make a physical backup of the whole Shipsim2008 UserData folder in My Documents, to keep it safe.
