Description Summary
The Spacelab Headquarters also comes with advanced decommissioning and salvage equipment that may be utilised to regain some resources from unwanted hulls that <player> may wish to repurpose elsewhere, rather than simply selling the hulk. While not wholly efficient, the process can render a hull down to provide useful materials that may be utilised for other projects
Detailed Info
Any equipment/wares stored/installed on the ship will be destroyed & not figure into the recycling calculation, so strip the hull completely before scrapping!
A 100% hull will yield ~80% of its build material cost (except for some special additions); the yield decreases proportionally with hull integrity
As with Reverse Engineering, a large or complex hull may take some time to scrap. In the meantime its docking port won't be available for (eg) traders, so manage your queue of scrap ships appropriately
