Upcomming 4.85 confusion. Which ships we need to re-buy?

[El Nino]

You will only have to rebuy your ship if the powerplant has changed and you want to take advantage of that change.

Explanation:
The Powerplant of a vessel is specific to that ship/model.
It has been made buyable and tradeable etc like other equipment in most mods except for Discovery (IE like armour upgrades)
It is automatically included in the ship price when you buy a new one and is transfered over automatically.
The NEW powerplants will be on the sellable ships.
YOUR ship will not have the new one as it bought the 'old' powerplant.
Basically a good few ships will now come with a better powerplant when you buy them. If you want it, you will need to buy the ship, even if you already have the same (In all but the powerplant) one.

As the man responsible for moding the powerplant bit in 4.85 i can confirm this. Especialy the first sentance. I should add that some ships will get a 20-40% power increase with rebuy, but are still perfectly flyable if not rebought.

Are you willing to pay 200mil for 40% more power? People pay 895M for 0.5 more armor all the time, so i guess, all requests for refund are void. As you keep the powerplant you had when you bought the ship. And have what you paid for. Unfortunatly the latest 2009 model has a bigger engine for the similar price, so what can you do... replace your old model for a new one? Yes that costs.
