I have two ideas
1st) we should have the ability to choose weather or not we want to be asked to demolish a building , or delete an artifact.
I understand why it is put into place so we dont acidently delete something we dont want to, but i think it should be up to the player weather or not it should be asked, for i personally find it veary annoying.
so in settings there should be an option for weather or not we want it to ask us if we are shure about deleting buildings or artifacts.

2nd) There should be an sell all artifacts out of you cargo bay area check box.
For in times of when you whant to get ride of all your artifacts but it takes an hour to do so because you have to manually go through them all and on top of that you have to confirm that you wish to deleat it UGG!
Wich once agian there should be in settings weather or not we want it to ask us if we are shure about deleting buildings or artifacts.

1) So you want aa on/off 'are you sure' button?

2) No, when you get farther in the game this button would quickly be obsolete.

There are very, very few artifacts that you should want to scrap, and for some players it is more like none.

1) Ya, an on/off 'are you sure' button. :)

2) Wouldnt you be increasing the amount of artis for your income?
but id suppose you would also have a greater amount of storage.
But alright i can see were you wouldnt want to scrapp all of them, but if there was little boxes at the end of all the artifacts so you could click on the ones you dont need and have a scrap all checked type of senario.

Let me put this another way.
I wouldn't want to scrap my omnibase, planetary aegis, terraformers, quasis, etc. would you?

1) As long as it's an available option, then sure. Sometimes, like when upgrading a planet, it would be helpful to have this option due to my occasional absentmindedness, lol. +1

2) No, I need Prisoners, ship-bots and null fuses and don't want to risk losing them.

Did no one read this bit?
Did anyone read this bit??????? um hello?
If there was a box to every artifact at the end of them , then you could choose to click on the ones that you dont need , and you wouldnt click on the ones you would want to keep. duuuu

Even still, almost nobody wants to delete all of a type of artifact and would like to keep a stockpile of them in case they need them in the future, so these check boxes would largely go unused except for ranks too low to know how to sell artifacts. Which would mean we would still need a box where you can type in a number to scrap (kind of like the system we have right now).

I may not need planetary effects - ion repulsor charges, engineered viruses, longevity serums, etc. - often, but I certainly wouldn't scrap all of them. I need a supply, even if it's small, on the chance one of my planets comes under attack/I want to attack a planet.

I Have to agree with you. However i think that you should be able to check the artifacts you wish to sell and how many you wish to sell. often times i have to reduce my cargo and have like 300 spy probes of the various kinds.

well another thing would be is if you checked the box next to the arti then the entire collection of that arti would be deleated.

That is what I addressed - almost nobody would want every one of an artifact to be deleted, unless they were too low rank to keep a stockpile of them.

Nathan, why not make governance probes out of them? Unless your base lacks the governance probe, which is completely understandable considering the random and unforgiving nature of the CT Lab.

It's not just me. Personally at my rank I still scrap any spy probes I get, but the majority of my medium-rank (200-300+) legionmates had huge stockpiles of them.

You can already type a quantity into the box. This allows you so scrap some, one or all. What are you asking for?

ok here we go....
1st) at the end of every type of artifact that you have there should be a tiny check box for if you click on the box it would delete the entire number of artifacts that were that type.
2nd) if you only wanted to get ride of lets say a few of that type of arti then you would just use the slandered form of getting ride of artifacts.
3rd) There would be an box in a corner of the arti section were if you clicked it it would get rid of all artifacts in your ship, and it would ask you 'are you sure'? that way you wouldn't click on it accidentally
remove all the arti from your ship. For if you ever wanted to use it.
4th) have in the settings a check box for removing the ''are you sure you wish to delete building and also have another check box in the settings for ''are you sure you wish to delete arti''.

1st) And you can't use the Qty box because?
2nd) "
3rd) :shock: Why would you do that? I'm guessing your rank is sub-50?
4th) Yeah. I agree with that. +1

if you want a delete all artifacts it does not take long. I have about 13k in my cargo hold and it takes no more than a few mins to clean out what i dont want if that. the point people are saying is you dont scrap artifacts for income. you dont scrap all artifacts unless it is mostly junk or to make room for a mod (at lower levels anyways), or to try to give more room for Mineral pulls. either way, selling all artifacts bad and if you want to you will only wish you never had as you get higher up and realized those 100 X artfacts you could ahve had that you scraped you now need for an item or mission.
