Military Upgrades on Indie Planets and others

Hey Cory,

I think was Davos meant by 3) was when you're looking at buying a ship, rather then giving you one shot to either buy, or not buy said ship (as soon as you decline buying a ship, it's gone for good), to show a list of the ships that are for sale at that Star Port. I'd also like to see an easier way to compare your current ship to the one up for sale, rather than flipping back and forth between the Ship Status window and the buy ship window.

I am going to use an interface with two panels, like Combat.

It will show the current ship on the left and another ship on the right.

The ship on the Right might be:

- For Sale
- Captured
- Crashed
- In Dry Dock

There will be a button (or swipe) if the ship on the right is part of a list. That way a catalog of ships for sale, or a Captain's vast collection of ships, can be viewed in a sequence.

My test Captain enjoys flipping back and forth between his three ships. A Jango, a Paladin and a Battleship (for those pesky Alien.)

A upcoming upgrade will fix "Ships for Sale" so that they persist like upgrades do. There will be an auction type system -- if you buy it the first time you see it (like it is today) you get a 10% discount. Otherwise, it goes into that Urban Zone's Dry Dock. Once the Captain has seen all the ships (or the Dry Dock is full) this catalog (swipe/button list, compared to current ship) will be available to shop.
