Ship Recycle

Description
Provides ship recycling in Player Shipyards and NPC Shipyards

=== How to Use ===

Fly to the zone that contains the shipyard that you want to use to recycle your ship
Open communications with the right Ship Trader for the size of vessel that you are recycling
Pick the "Sell or Recycle a ship" menu option
The Sell button sells the ship in the normal way using standard Egosoft code at the standard price
The Recycle button opens up the Recycle Cost menu for the selected ship where you can see the recycling information
Then pick "Yes, recycle this ship"
Sit back and watch the ship move into the docking cradle and then observe the ship and its contents getting recycled

New Feature in v0.06
Apply a 90% recycling factor to ship hull wares
Rebalance prices to track what shipbuilders pay to buy back ships (80%), drones (85%) and ammunition (90%)
Add an extra 10% handling charge to wares that could be sold to the station by the player before the ship is recycled. As the Teladi say "time is money".

In my game i tried this mod and i waited for 2d(in game) time to recycle a ship with no succes...the faction took the ship from me but it was still mine...i could't control it or give any orders but it was green(mine)...finally i decided to use Simons lantern cheat to destroy it because it was blocking the hanger and couldn't build any ship(xl)..Is that an error or i just had to wait even longer for the wares in the shipyard to go down???...I waited quite a lot...hence i figured i say it here...BTW, my ship had captain, engineer and defence officer...

This mod still works fine but you must make sure the ship you wish to recycle has a captain aboard as it works much like rearming your ship as it will fly to the dock unlike selling which requires no crew and the ship just disappears. The captain on the ship usually ends up on the nearest platform to the shipyard dealer but to be safe just hire a cheap captain and replace them if you really want to keep the current one.

If you try and recycle a ship without a captain the shipyard will be stuck waiting for the ship and you will have to edit your save game to take the ship out of the shipyard.

I ran debugger and this is what I have at the report after the recycling was finished:

[Scripts] 234661.88 *** Context:md.Ship_Recycle.LogWriter<inst:65139>: Hull Wares added to JSS Large BTO Shipyard I, bofu - 118, plasmapumps - 80, bioelectricneurongel - 75, reinforcedmetalplating - 41, emspectrometer - 37, fusionreactor - 17, holtzmanfieldgenerator - 17, plasmaflowregulator - 15, shieldgenerator - 8, machinegunturret - 8,

Clearly there is no NPC destroyed part.

Another thing to add is as soon as my phoenix docked in Devries I got the full payout from the deal. But it wasn't recycled and it is still sitting there - under my ownership.

@jth
I'm having same issue as Dozer - I have the "God Mode for Player Ships and Station" Mod. My case is I sent a captured teladi phoenix to Devries to be recycled. But it is just sitting there in the XL ship bay. Npthing happening. I tried disabling the God mode mod but doesn't seem to do anything. Then I try disabling and re-enabling recycle mod (while having god mode off) and still nothing. It is stuck there. I can't sell the ships and I also cannot issue orders to them.

Please help.

You can run your own shipyard as a scrap yard in the way that you suggest. It will take a fair number of ship recycles to get enough to build a station with. The bigger the recycled ships the better (L or XL).

It doesn't recycle smaller ships as the amount of materials recovered simply isn't enough to make it worth the efforts coding it.
