no, the stock persists until you clear it. I need to know, because I'm creating a list of total "devices", both on ships and on stock, as to see if I should add more or not.
Allow me to explain it further:
In the mod I'm making each "device" is in fact, a ship. So in the fleet load out screen what you actually do is trade ships between fleets. At the moment of a battle the "devices" are redeemed in the form of ships, and when you loose a ship you loose the device from where that ship came from.
Now, I want to to occationaly grant the player fresh reinforcements, so I check how many "devices" are currently in each ship-fleet, but I'm not taking into account the ones the player left in the common stock, the one on the fleet loadout screen, so that leaves a very easy way to cheat the game, just leave very few devices-ships in your fleet-ships so that the game sees that you have very little ships and sends reinforcements.
So what I want to do is take into account the ones stored in the common stock, to fully see how many devices-ships the player currently has.
