How to sell a spaceship?

How to sell unnecessary spacecraft?

[Good Old Gamer]

go to planet, call *chosen* (un needed) spaceship to you with the *call ship* function >>> go to space station with ship >>> trade in for new ship (don't think you can sell directly)

[Good Old Gamer]

think you can abandon a ship though but again not entirely sure

[Hexenhammer]

I don't think you can. You have a 6 ship limit and once you buy six you have to exchange an existing ship to get a new one.


There is a save game editor mod that allows you to remove a ship.

[bondKI]

You cant.

[-OrLoK- Слава Україн]

I'd love to see it as a mod

You cannot sell a space ship, you can only exchange it.

Which is a terrible design choice tbh. They let you salvage abandoned ships, fix them up, ect, but then dont allow you to sell them again? I mean, they're so rare to find anyway, especially good ships, and they cost so damn much stuff to repair...

If we could just sell them for at LEAST 1/3 of their total worth, that'd be awesome...

C'mon HG! We need this feature already!

Money really isn't an issue late game.

[MS. Green Label]

you can't, just like we can/t build ships, or how they put in patch notes "ship customisations" another misleading quote by the folks over at HG

They even had Cobra thinking we could build ships now

It is sad. For so many years, the game has not yet been finalized...
Thanks for answers!
I am completely disappointed ...

AH, this old topic again. No, you can't sell ships. You can delete it by using NMS Save Editor.

And THIS is why you cant sell them... HG didn't want them to be a source of income... in versions past they were not rare at all... you couldn't swing a dead cat without hitting a handful of them.

Some people consider ongoing support and free content updates to mean that a game isn't "finished", like fixing bugs and giving players new content is bad.

In the eyes of the devs the reason why there is no selling option is most likely: you will end-up buying a new ship - soon or late. So exchanging is a must, selling option is superfluous. Makes sense to me, alhtough it's always better to have a feature instead of not.
