Any way to store ships?

[Sabaithal]

I know how to retrieve a ship from storage. How do you do the reverse?

Namely, a carrier that has plenty of storage space, but I can't find the option to store a ship manually, and the docked interceptors are not doing it on their own when more ships attempt to dock.

Hmm, thats strange.

If all dock areas have ships docked on them, if you ask another ship to dock, some of the ships docked will move to storage.

I do this on my Ceberus. Dock the S ship I want to store ask another S ship to dock and the one docked gets moved to storage.

I am yet to find any way to order a ship to move to storage.

So lets take the Colossus Carrier, 8 S Docks, 4 M docks, and 50 Ship Storage.

So you need to ask 8 S ships to dock, preferably the ones you want to store. Then ask another 8 S ships to dock. This should cause the previous 8 ships already docked to be moved to storage.

If they are in a fleet it may complicate things.

It could be that they are in a fleet, because you have to individually tell each fleet under a carrier that they should dock under the Loadout tab.

Also presuming that the carrier still has space, it has always worked automatically for me.
Sorry for not being more helpful.

When you land, go to the terminal at the docking pad where the ship is. I believe there is a store option there. It might be also in one of the right click context menus but I can't recall where at the moment.
