Ships and bases window

Post by aZmoDen »

I think this window needs a new sort column, Mk level.
Its frustrating, trying to find the last few ships or the last few mining / gas stations that need to be retrofitted to the latest version.
Sorting by this column would make life infinitely easier.
Doesnt even need to mean a increase in window size, you could swap it for speed or firepower.
What does everyone else think?

Removing firepower would be a very bad move. I find the "stragglers" by sorting by firepower or maintenance.

I've not make the test but maybe you can :
- Filter to military ship
- Click on column Maintenance (min to max)
- Then click on column Ship Type

If there is a double sorting, you may find ship of a specific type with lower(or different) maintenance cost in the first line.
If maintenance cost is different, it's because the ship has'nt been retrofited !


Another solution, otherwise add a new column, maybe a new filter in Ship list can be added :
- "Not latest design ships"

Why can't you just select them all and retrofit, only the ones that are not up to date will actually retrofit.
