Assets value reduced - please help ?

philmo

I have read some variations of what this means, I only ask as as odd as it might sound the value of my assets has reduced - although I have sold some
items I thought the value also included cash so should it not really change unless of course I make a loss or have to pay insurance / fines etc ? (which I haven't)

Apologies as I know this topic has been posted elsewhere, but there were mixed answers so I could do with some clarity.

Thanks in advance.

And if you forgot to strip out the expensive modules before selling the ship, then you lost 10% on those as well....

you lose 15% on module sales now - the only way to keep your net asset value is to store your modules rather than sell them ( and keep ship hulls rather than sell them)

15% now? Blimey. Still with storage available it shouldn't be to much of an issue

Are you sure about this? I don't recall reading this in the patch notes, and cannot find info on this, however I've found the following:

I don't think the loss on selling modules has come back.

This might have been a miscommunication with the server if its only happened once.

I thought the loss in module value was only if you did not strip your ship before selling it, if there is a 'handling charge' for selling them anyway that is a bit of a pain. Although in reality not unreasonable
to expect there to be some sort of handing - maybe not 15% though.

That's right, if you sell it with your ship, you lose 10%.

Wait, what, really? So now we have to store modules if we don't want to loose money on them?

Edit, nope, just checked, no loss of cash upon selling items.

The 10% loss if you sell it with the ships used to be real though, doubt they have changed that :)

No, that's not what I said.
AFAIK, it's the same as it has always been. Sell modules first.

Yes.

So, if credits are tight, Sell all removable equipment/modules and downgrade all primary modules to E grade before selling the hull to minimise your loss.

If you think you may want the ship again, do the above, but keep the hull if you can so you get no loss at all. Do this at a decent outfitter for re-fitting later though.

I definitely didnt see that in the patch notes. I guess its time to stop playing until there are ways to make money without passenger missions or skimmwr stacking
