Default Re: Mothballing: a raison-daitre.

good advice. i just let my main battle ships sit there and only mothball miners/sattetelite/builder ships. Doesn't mothballing remove the experience the ships have gained tough?

Of course! Why wouldn't it? Although, a fleet of mothballed ships retains its experience, and can even be trained!

IF: Make up your mind! Does mothballing ships remove any gained experience, or not???

I think IF meant that ships lose exp, but FLEETS keep it. So if you mothball an entire fleet, it would keep its training while any exp the individual ships have would be lost.

Cheers!

You can't mothball ships in a fleet--they don't show up in the Scrap/Analyze/Mothball window. You have to remove them from the fleet first.
