Quick Recycle sends recyclers to an existing debris field without requiring the full mission form. It creates a normal Recycling mission to the selected debris coordinates.
What exactly does this feature do?
Inter-War selects available recycling units according to the supported quick-action logic. When Giga Recyclers are available, the action can prefer them before standard Recyclers because of their much larger capacity.
How does it work in practice?
The server validates that the debris field exists and that you have suitable ships, a free slot, fuel and enough free cargo capacity. The shortcut does not guarantee full collection if total recycler capacity is too small.
What does the server validate?
Quick Recycle is most useful after large battles where reaction time matters. Compare debris size with fleet capacity because metal is collected before crystal and an undersized recycling fleet can leave part of the crystal behind.
When is it useful?
The shortcut does not bypass the rules of the normal mission. Inter-War still checks account state, available units, slots, target, costs and the limits of the active universe. If the situation changed after the button was rendered, the quick action can be rejected instead of executing stale instructions.
What should you watch out for?
Treat the feature as a faster way to submit a valid mission, not as a separate system with weaker rules. For important operations, always verify the target and parameters before clicking.
