How can you upgrade weapons platforms or satellites? If you need to just jettison/self-destruct them and rebuild, is there some way to do that without having to visit every colony individually?
This problem has been annoying SE IV players from the beginning. You can scrap launchable units like fighters and Sats by launching them into space in a sector with a space yard. Troops and WPs are lost resources once you build them. Apparently 'upgrading' units is too difficult to implement in the code. Both beta testers and players have been asking for the option to at least scrap units in planetary cargo storage. Send in youe email 'vote' for this tweak any time. It's the volume of support that seems to make the difference with changes in existing features.
