How to delete old frigates?

[impending_zombie_apocalypse]

Is there any way to delete my old frigates i don't want anymore? i just hit the limit of 30 and wanted to get rid of all my class C's so i can go for the better ones but there's no way to sell or scrap them, i tried talking to the man in the control room and all he lets me do is assign them to missions? I tried going into the buildable control room too and all that lets me do is command expeditions, not delete frigates.

the only way so far as i know is by sending them on missions and hope they get destroyed...

Or use the save file editor mod to delete it completely...

I tried that and nothing happens, do they have to be in a fleet and on an expedition for me to actually dismiss them or no?

You have to debrief them first, after that you can delete it

It's been removed from the game now... apparently.

Delete function should have been effective around this thread's August article.
The delete function was lost in v1.63. The reason is unknown.

How do you delete a frigate that is stuck in debriefing?

You need to make room on the freighter for the cargo it is going to offload. Move tech to the tech tab if needed and other stuff temporarily to your suit.

Outside of running derelict freighter missions to get cargo bulkheads to create more slots, no in-game way to fix it...maybe using the save game editor but that is a guess.

Edit: Find a better freighter with more slots...but they are usually expensive.

This is an old thread, with old outdated information.

In the current version (v3.42), so when you check your frigate fleet on the screen that is on the command bridge, there is now a button to (remove) the ship you are looking at from the fleet, you also get a confirmation question , if you are sure of the matter (remove the ship), if you use the button.

They do not delete if they are stuck in debriefing.

If it is not possible to do the debriefing, you can try deleting the frigate assignment, using the save editor.
I described how to do it in this thread.
