Fixed Weird Effects due to Shipyard Repaint Interface

@Levis: If you're now vaguely familiar with the Shipyard Interface code anyway, did you happen to spot any not-too-difficult ways of fixing this particular issue?
Apparently sometimes using the Repaint Interface can create a copy of your own ship, so you suddenly get a second one for free. :facepalm
 
Still need to look into this. If I can replicate it I can fix it. It's on my to-do list but got other stuff first.
 
If someone like @A.H could tell me the exact steps to replicate this it should go faster.
 
This was an issue not far back; can't exactly remember.. but you could try as a start to get 2 ships.. one with you and one with an officer.. then repaint/appearance of your "officer's" ship..
For me, what happened as I remember is the officer's ship turned exactly same as mine in stats.. I had a sloop or something, and he had a fluyt .. after repaint, his ship became a sloop.

Not 100% sure what was the case since I forgot about this a while back, but i'll dig into it when I get myself a fleet
 
Got to replicate it.
If you want to use this exploid:

- Hire an officer
- Go to the shipyard
- Have a ship which has multiple appearances to choose from (dunno for sure if this is needed tough)
- Set the officer as captain in the shipyard interface
- Go to appearance
- Select the captain
- You can now still choose an appearance while there is no ship
- Choose one
- Exit the interface
- You now have an extra ship

Now that I replicated it I can try to fix it.
Will look at it tomorrow. Probably isn't that hard to fix tough :).
