I am very much a noob so forgive this if it is a silly question.
I aready sold one ship, but did not see what happened to its accumulated stars. I know that stars can be used to upgrade items and to research the next immediate ships in the tech tree, but what happens to the stars remaining if I then sell the ship. For example I have one with 16000+ stars and I cannot upgrade any more items or research ships around it - already done.. What happens to these stars if I choose to sell it?
Thanks
