Mass Retrofit - It can be done!!! |
Right now I've got you attention i'm going to tell you this is bo***ocks...Nah i'm only joking. It's for real!
Now i'm not sure about stock because I was playing balance mod at the time. But it's a hard coded thing so it should work with stock as well.
Get all your outdated ships of the same old design and stick them in a fleet. Now go to the ships screen and select one of those ships (it might help to rename one of them so you can find it).
NOTE:It will let you select that individual ship inside of the fleet. Now refit that ship, and it'll try to refit all the other ships in the fleet as well.
WARNING: Be careful because it tries to refit everything in the fleet whether it's the same ship hull or not.
The same above applies to
The same above applies to mass scrapping too.
I made this easier to do by creating a custom layout in the ships window with: ship picture, ship name, coords, ship class, fleet name.

Third and final test. This
Third and final test.
This also works for ships of different designs but same ship hull
Say your best design is "Frigate X"
And you have a fleet full of "Frigate I, Frigate II, Frigate III, and some Frigate V's" all same hull size but different versions.
You can retrofit all of them in ONE GO! to "Frigate X" Using the above!!!
It seems MM have partially implemented fleet refits, but hasn't quite finished it off yet.
Once this orinance bug is fixed, omg fleets will be such a time-saver!

Heck Yah! One question,
Heck Yah!
One question, with the ordnance bug being there - I assume that you can form a fleet just for the retrofit, then disband it as soon as all the confirmation dialogs are clicked through so that they don't lose ordnance?

Thanks..
I was looking for a way to retrofit fleets, doing it 1 by 1 was pitifully tedious.
That is good to know Thanks
