How do you scrap a facility?

Thanks Phoenix. Sentry orders was a toggle in SEIV? Does not appear to be a toggle in SEV. I gave a ship sentry orders, went back to give it move orders, has the move orders but will not come out of sentry mode?

(OK you have to cancel all orders, toggle would be easier?)

P.S. I also discovered that if you have two or more ships selected the RETROFIT button does NOT light up and allow selection. That's going to get old real fast when trying to retrofit a large number of ships!

It would also be nice to be able to change the ship name from the ship report window. Since the ship display at the bottom of the main window doesn't show the ship class it makes it tedious to go back to the ship list at the top to see which ships have been upgraded. I used to change the ship names in SEIV so that I could tell at a glance which ships had been upgraded. I'd like to hear how you folks are managing ship retrofits. Looks to be a chore at first glance.

More interface mazes. It would seem that a common action like retrofitting would not be buried in button menus. I can understand hiding scrap facility under a hierarchy, but not retrofit. I guess we can always email MM

The hot-key to retrofit a ship is Ctrl-E. Simple. What's not simple is retrofitting a number of ships at once. Something similar to the 'check list' window in SE IV has got to be added.

I agree 100%.

Is there any scrap all facilities like in SEIV? I cant seem to find it, and I want to delete a bunch of research facilities, but there is no way I am going through each planet...

There is in the Construction Queues summary screen for the Empire.
