[Proposal] Favorite ship

[vvvvvvvv]

It is simple. You click a star next to a ship in the list.

(optional) This places it on top of the list.

Now you can't sell it, unless you remove the star.

Reason: It occurred to me that the only thing standing between me and accidentally selling my flagship is that it is modded.

That's a good idea, but here's how I'd do it for now:

Use a Fleet and utilise the reference AAA as the first three characters of your fleet name. Top down from fleet name and it will be at the top of the list.

I take it this is for pirating? Pirated ships you want to sell fall under the command of another fleet following your main one, so if you sell your leader ('Bounty Shepherds' would be a good name) your fleet leader would be safe.

I mark all special ships with "!". "!Hyperion". That places them in front of the list. Special characters like #@$!- go in front of AAA. However, there's still fairly good chance of accidental sale, because situation where you think you're giving orders to one ship, but in reality it is another happens often. For example, you're giving trade orders, except your "Heron E" for some reason has 50 cargo. Then it turns out you somehow still have builder selected. Somehow.

Also numbers goes before letters.
In my LT-game I used "1 - ", "2 - " for my boarding ships so they were in the top of the list.

For favorite ship feature I don't much see use.

Yep good idea. Currently I also use either symbols or NumericAlpha naming to arrange things on the property list. But an extra option here of marking them would be good.
