How about a standard or unlockable ability to rebuild your ship? That is, you could take back all your rank points and allocate them in whatever way you want. That would make it so when we were dumb at the beginning and put everything towards something dumb and made ourselves the smallest ship for our level, we could undo that without restarting.

This would be a huge deal, so you could limit it by some disadvantages like a 10% loss of rank points and only being able to every couple of months or so. Or even just once the entire game.

Just actual rank points would be involved, not helmsmen and scientists (and maybe even ship-bots).

Is this WAY too big of a deal? What kind of trouble would it cause? What are the ramifications?

+1, I know I would love to see something like this, but there will be people abusing it, have to have some limitations

This is the problem, the points aren't kept track of separately.

Don't worry about any mistakes you might've made when you started, I wasted plenty of rank points on scientists when I started, it really won't make that much of a difference once you get further along, those few rank points you put in the wrong place will just be a drop in the bucket eventually.

Been discussed to death. If there were a 'beating a dead horse' animation, it would be here.

Rank points aren't tracked (to my knowledge or most peoples' knowledge). So, it's not as simple as it sounds. On top of that, it would make it easy to powerlevel to rank 1000+ or 2000+ and then "Rebuild" into a ship that has the perfect amount of deck and all the rest of the points allocated to either attack/defense ... way overpowered.


This idea of reallocating points is never going to happen (maybe a 0.001% chance). If you had searched, you would have found this topic and it's been suggested even in versions that are almost identical to what you suggested.

Next time, search to make sure the idea is new or that you offer something new to it worth while that might change the outcome.

Here ya go Vette:

well, i'm not sure about the "over powered" theory... the AP artifact boosts and the research will probably be horrible compared to players of similiar lvl, so it's gonna be a tin can

But yeah, rebuild ain't happening, it's likely not even possible
