The warning is on the first tab of the right hand HUD where it displays the rebuy cost of the ship right next to the CMDR's credit balance:

this is not a warning just the rebuy cost and ive meant it should say super big text like "you will not be able to rebuy that ship once you respawn"

What, you respawned in a sidewinder and then lost your ship? I'm not sure what you are saying here, if you respawn you are given the option of rebuying your ship at that point, if you choose not to for whatever reason then no you can't rebuy it later, that seems kind of obvious.

They are in-game already.
The HUGE projected signs you see around stations include the "Don't Fly Without Rebuy"
Sorry for your luck Cmdr

who reads signs around stations lol never really bothered because.. why would I? must have been some random game related ad like "buy painite!" xd. and eh theres enough text in this game and it is easy to forget unless theres a better warning on the rebuy screen.

This really sums your situation up quite neatly. Why should you need to read up on things, why can't you just jump in the game and go do stuff?

BTW your suggestion "... just add another warning to rebuy respawn screen ..." and " ... unless theres a better warning on the rebuy screen..." is rather moot - if you are in the rebuy screen then you either can or can't rebuy - if you can't then that is your warning. :ROFLMAO: If you have gone through multiple rebuys then you should know that it is using up your credit balance - or maybe you can't be bothered to read that either.

Really, seriously, stop digging - accept your mistake and get on with the game. The way things stand you can recoup just about any losses in a day even if you are flying a fully A-rated Corvette or Cutter - in which you should know about the rebuy.

In your right hand panel in ship, theres a rebuy cost on the 1st page under the Ranks iirc, if thats more than you have, thats a warning.
