Ship decommissioning - Neils Iyssada - 03-05-2020
Would be nice if you could automatically (by pressing a GUI button) scrap a whole ship for modules or materials.
Would require it to be moored at station / airport. Or maybe the same conditions than mothball.
Scrapped materials / modules quantity would depend of the current durability of the ship. Maybe have a quantity penalty based on quality, kinda like quality fails when fetching.
Could be scraped by Airport Repair Shops, and should work with ships of other empires (captured).
Scrap should require a fraction of the nominal design build time.
Why ?
Well it's really annoying to waste tons of ressources into a big ship and having to replace it for a random reason (newly found Q255 hull ressource / interior update of a mothership etc)
It's even worst when you think about all the ressources your nearly-pristine ship represent.

I agree for the most part, but,

I believe Haxus has said that he wants to do this. Especially now that modules of a captured ship can then be used for another ship.
It would be nice indeed.

But not as bad when you then remember that resources are infinite, and only production rate and time really matters.

Love it, and a future salvage system could tie into it easily if my suggestion about adding wrecks/derelicts ever gets considered.
