Scrapping S class ships

[fornostg.s.d.]

Has something changed in the scrapping of ships? i now get 3 C class upgrades when I scrap an S class ship, instead of 3 S class upgrades.
I don't know if this is a bug or if it's intentional.

If they did change that, then they are probably wanting you to farm nanites another way, as that used to be the fastest method of building nanites. I am still using Prisms until the bug complaints die down, and that I know still drops S-class modules when scrapping S-Class ships.

Sounds quite odd. Yesterday while playing a new Survival save, I scrapped an “S” Exotic (guppy) & acquired 2 “S” class upgrades.

How many “S” class ships did you scrap? The way I read your post it sounds like several.

Scrapping exotics worked fine for me yesterday (S-class in...S-class out), but i've seen wot the OP described on a yt vid awhile ago

I just scrapped an S class fighter and got FOUR S class modules .

[fornostg.s.d.]

I was only scrapping the one S class ship, although I had scrapped a few just before just B and C.
When it happened I reloaded the game and tried again and got the C class upgrades again. So I reloaded, shut the game down and restarted, its still giving C class after the restart. That's why I asked if it had been changed.

im pretty sure the results of a specific ship are fixed, not random per salvage attempt. Aside from that, yeah it can give lower grade modules although it doesnt happen that often.

I don't see how it can be an S ship if it has C upgrades. It is an exotic so i have no doubt about the class of the ship (hasn't been upgraded to S class from C) so i don't know.

S class (and A/B class for that matter) can give you C grade modules when scrapping, it's always been like that.

I've scrapped a lot (at least 300,000 nanites worth of scrapping) and I have never seen an S-class drop less than S-class modules or A or B class more than their grade either for that matter. And I check each time. So if that is the case it is very very rare.

I've scrapped a few S-class ships in my day ; /
Regular S-class ships usually, but not always, give S-class upgrade modules.
Exotics always give S-class upgrade modules.
Just my experience.
