Piece by piece, or whole wall

[AnnoyingCoder]

Is it better/ profitable to break something down slowly, or can I drop a whole ceiling, making all the pieces break apart for me. Don't know if I lose anything.

You don't lose anything by breaking anything at once, unless you make the floor under the crane'able elements fall down. I've always tried to take away any engines, palettes and other crane'able elements first, and then I proceeded with destroying the rest of the ship.

I broke the game in the preview version once by doing that. Though breaking the ship all at once is a challenge on it's own

had to add one thing i found out by collapsing the whole ship at once. heavy items that need the crane to remove them will get destroyed. and can lead to a crash

My method is to carefully do just what needs done to get the crane grabby parts (engines and all that). After I get everything out, and it's just a bunch of empty rooms with no stuff to pick up or crane away, I bring the whole thing down in one fell swoop, using the fewest hammer swings, saw cuts, and torchy bits. It's fun to watch that monolith of metal crash down so that all I gotta do is pick up and throw, pick up and throw, until it's all collected and ready to sort.

But that's just me.

Get the generators out/cargo out and rupture a gas line...most effective way possible haha and awesome to watch.

First I clear all the stuff off, then I start top down. Layers like a cake. Celiings, Walls , floor. Walls floor , Floors. Crane the engines and Pallets off as you get to it.
