I suppose you have more than enough in all three resources at the moment you order the retrofit, right? (Even if you didn't, you should have got a message)

The 50% rule add all three resources, so you are fine, and again would have got a message. So, I'm not sure what the problem is. I gather there is no fishy order on the SY ship?
Well, IF I don't have enough to retrofit 1000m, 100o, and 100r, I have a bigger problem than wasting turns . To answer, I have plenty.

As to "fishy" order to the SY ship, I guess I'm giving a bit of my game away by saying this but on the first turn I retrofitted, it was given orders to build mines (which it did). Second time, when trying to retrofit to add one org panel, all I had it do was launch mines. I didn't worry about any of that because regular shipyards can be building and planets can be launching during retrofits.

I guess I can try it without the damn ship doing anything at all but that sucks if that's the problem. Additionally, giving no error message at all sucks. I mean, basic programmers know enough to code a logical check for success...something along the lines of, "IF Retrofit Successful, then Next Order ELSE Display Error_Msg". Pretty simple stuff.
