Reposting an idea from this thread because the original was locked and I couldn't post in it.

When you strip a ship fitting, the contents of the drone bay and the cargo bay don't get removed. This often leads to you getting that annoying "Couldn't fit XYZ because it couldn't be found" popup message relating to ammo and other charges in the cargo bay. Interestingly, this doesn't happen with drones. Therefore it must be possible with items in the cargo bay as well?

Potential Solutions

  • Strip fitting button should empty the cargo bay and the drone bay as well as fitted modules
  • An extra step - empty the cargo bay - should be added to the beginning of the "apply fitting" process


Benefits

  • Fewer popup error messages
  • Ship fitting becomes slightly faster and less irritating


Downsides

  • None
