Hmmm. I have a solution which would help solve the unwanted scraping of
valuable ships, without tying up the server, and without rewriting the
ship database. Why not set a threshold for the cost of a ship which can
be scraped non-explicitly.
Example
scrapyard 100
*scrapyard value set to 100.
scrap
* ship s1234 scraped, cost 20, recovered 10
* ship @10 could not be scraped since you have requested it be protected
from moronic and careless use of the scrap command. You must scrap the
ship individually.
Now, this wouldn't protect you from making a typo with the number, but I
think it would help eliviate part of the problem.
