But what do we do when the counter runs out?

The standard Stars! limits are 16 ship designs and 10 starbase designs, while those are going to be configurable, they should default to Stars! values for balance reasons as stated on the wiki. And even if they don't, there is still a chance they may exhaust.

Although, we could just use those for Ids and track the total amounts with Count from their collections. Might be a better idea.

We can have over 16 million fleets/designs etc. They're not going to run out. Tracking how many there is easier than trying to re-use Ids. I was going to suggest adding a counter for each empire and ID type that just then increases each time
