The mapping is up to the server at run time. It may hard code it, the numbers
may be per-player at creation time.
For example in minisec using tpserver-cpp:
Player 1 scout: 1
Player 1 frigate: 2
Player 1 destroyer: 3
Player 2 scout: 4
...
Each id is allocated when the player joins the game.
So basically you need to discover the numbers yourself at run time - most
likely by finding designs by name. Working out which is yours needs to be
done by seeing what you can build.

/me thinks this sounds like a bug. xdotx this one is yours...
Else check the code ;-) Is the owner set correctly?

No idea... ;-)
