If you click on the "Select a ship" button in the station, there's no way of cancelling. I accidentally clicked on the button, rather than "Buy Ship" as I had meant, to, and there's no way of getting out of the screen without selecting a ship.

I figure since I already had a ship selected, I should at least be able to get to the previous screen. Though if I didn't have a ship selected, I should still be able to navigate the station screens as normal, just not be allowed to leave the station itself.

And the select screen still has the "Quit Game" button

speaking of which, I just spent a bit of time selling leftover ships from every station around the universe. could we please get the option to only select ships present (a checkbox or so) or get the option to remote sell (and unequip) ships from other systems? pretty please?

This is hardly a bug thread and belongs in the Suggestions forum. FM?

[feeling more than just slightly frustrated and annoyed with Person's comment]

Clicking on the "Cancel" button and having nothing happen is a bug. There's a button. It doesn't do anything. It's not a suggestion.

Try it yourself. Go into a station. Click on "Select a Ship" and then click "Cancel." what happens?

If you're able to get out of that screen without quitting or selecting a ship, then please by all means tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Maybe there could also be a button that re-routes you to the buy screen. Replace the "Quit" button with it.

That was a suggestion but I hardly think that it deserves a thread of its own. Do we need to discuss the location and the color of this new "Go to Buy Screen" button? That's hardly a suggestion thread.

Cancel does too do something. It's like Prev/Next, except it doesn't actually change the chosen ship, just animate it as if it had just been selected. :S

Heh, but Cancel doesn't do what it's expected to do, so it's considered a bug.
You can't get out of that menu without selecting a ship, and that's why the quit game button is there.

Question:
When you die and don't buy-back your last ship and you have a ship already in storage at your home station, should the Select Ship menu open (like it does now) or should the main station menu come up when you select 'No' to the buy-back question?

Main menu station. Please.

And do give us the ability to sell ships that are not in the station. (Or even better, give us a menu of ships instead of having to click through 100 times of "next ship" to get to a ship we want, as many of us have lots of ships stockpiled all over the universe).

Yeah I second main station menu please.

Thirdond the main station menu.

Or maybe provide the option to select or ship or go to the main menu. Yea... That'd be the best of both worlds. That way people who do want to select a ship can do so without having to go through extra menus, and people who don't want to, don't have to.

I like Crip's idea.
/me once had about 40 EC-88s at Pyronis D-13, but finally sold them all o.o
