My suggestion is to have a way to ask for a rookie ship rather than have it given to us when we dock.
They get thrown at us and are always trashed right away except for exceptional cases.
When they are not trashed they end up being forgotten for years and just polute the personal assets window.
A button to ask for one in the ship hangar would solve the problem.
I would help with our often chaotic assets management and still help for those times when we need rookie ships.
Making it an option makes sense: maybe you docked to buy another ship or a shuttle. It’ll be a nice QoL change, but the button to request a new corvette should be clearly visible/accessible for new players. Maybe add a warning/hint when player tries to undock in a capsule without any other ships in hangar?
Didn’t imply we should not get rid of being spammed with the corvettes, was just offering an alternate solution until CCP implements such a feature (if ever).
As a developer myself, I definitely understand your point.
You have to weight the impact of the problem you are solving compared to the effort you are giving to solve it. If the impact is good enough and it takes a reasonable amount of dev time to fix an issue, then you can work on it. Otherwise just leave it.
I think that this issue would be cheap enough to fix to be considered.
