Okay, so we’ll get the bad news out of the way first. If you’re looking to change your ship type mid-session, you won’t be able to. This means if you’re looking to get a smaller or larger ship in the middle of the session, you are out of luck.
You’ll need to finish up whatever you’re doing so you don’t lose progress, and then exit the sessions and start up a new one.
The ability the change your ship type mid-session has been requested for years now, but it seems to be trickier to implement than fans think.
So in order to change your ship type, you’ll need to start a new session, and then pick your ship based on the number of players. If you want a smaller one because you’re a solo player, grab the Sloop.
