Android Gradle Plugin 3.0.1 versionNameSuffix overriding with flavors dimensions

Question

I have several flavors with 2 dimensions:

    flavorDimensions "buildType", "serverType"

    prod {
        dimension "serverType"
        versionNameSuffix "-prod"
    }

    development {
        dimension "buildType"
    }

    googlePlay {
        dimension "buildType"
        versionNameSuffix "-play"
        versionName "1.1"
    }

I want googlePlay flavor to override versionNameSuffix of prod flavor but it just appends suffixes to the final version name so I have version name like '1.1-prod-play' but I want it to be like '1.1-play'.

Could someone help me to achieve this?

Solution is to override versionName like this:

    prod {
        dimension "serverType"
        versionName globalConfig.androidVersionName + "-prod"
    }

    development {
        dimension "buildType"
    }

    googlePlay {
        dimension "buildType"
        versionName globalConfig.androidVersionName
    }

Where globalConfig.androidVersionName is defined by me variable with version name.
