Can you transfer it to another ship like cargo??

The only reason I can think off is if you are using the ship to explore unseen territory and thus do not know what type of planets you will find.

Also in Maxtech, so you don't have to count up "Hmmm, I need 12 Gas colony ships, 11 Ice colony ships, and 17 Rock colony ships, built at my five shipyards" ... and then have to figure out which shipyard builds how many of what type of ship, etc, etc, based on WHERE each colonisable planet is (send to the furthest, first, barring neighbor relations, etc, etc).

IOW, solely a lazy means of lessening MM.

Personally, I wish there WERE "Multicolony" components, and Exodus WILL have one (able to colonise all three worlds, at 400kT size). IIRC, some other mods already have similar components.
