quarter Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Currently, you have to move a ship from fleet to dock to sell it, even just to sell to AI. This is a problem with the limited number of available dock space. If your five slots are used, when you cap a ship on PvE, your only realistic options are to sink it or take to port and sell one of your other ships. Recommend adding an option to the fleet menu in-port to allow selling a ship to AI, rather than just Dock or Dismiss. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remus Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 You can sell your main ship, then (iirc) you can move your fleet ship to dock. So the mechanism that is missing is being able to swap one of your fleet ships with your main in a port without an outpost, which I think would be more useful. I'd also like to move my current ship to fleet in a port without an outpost so I can buy a new main. At the moment the only option is to sell.

Farrago Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 The inability to switch command from one ship to another with reasonable time and maneuver requirements in every game mode is a glaring omission in what could happen in real life. The one exception should be an enemy port obviously should not allow you to switch to a combat command. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree entirly, but why are fleets with warships allowed in enemy ports to start with, if they still are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I agree that it is unrealistic, the game is already so grindy and one must do so many things while away from your own home and free ports I sure hope they leave that quality of life element in. Personally, I haven't found that being able to have a fleet ship AI escort for a trader to make life too easy. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niels Terkildsen Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 I had a similar issue yesterday. Captured an enemy trader, and sailed to the closest free port. I could sell all the goods from the hold, but I couldn't get anything for the actual ship. My only option was to either sail through enemy territory towards national ports with an empty trader that would give me only a small reward for the long journey, or I could dismiss the ship and get nothing. I would like to have a third option: to sell the captured prize in the free port (or any friendly port w/o an outpost). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
