PBEM Retrofitting

[Jubala]

You got it all wrong guys. Here's how it works.

The ship/s to be retrofit/scrapped/mothballed/whatever can't be in a fleet. If you select all ships you want to r/s/m/w then only one will actually be r/s/m/w. A workaround for this is to select one ship and give it orders, exit the dialog window, reenter and select the next ship and give it orders, exit, reenter, select, exit and so on until you are finished. A major pain in the *** when retrofitting 50 ships of 5 different designs especially since the ships aint sorted in any rational manner and you can't filter out ships in fleets, with orders or by types or size.

I've done multiple refits to the same design by multi selecting the ships and then choosing the design to refit to.
Haven't managed to mothball more than one ship in a stack (not in fleets)

When retrofitting you can rename each ship after refit to keep track of which ones in the stack have already been changed. The ship display gives ship design so you can check to make sure you did not miss any.
