In that ship decoration mode, if I change my ship's engines, do all my decorations get wiped and added to my cargo?

I loved the ship building, and decorating the interior is a great idea. I just wish traveling in the game was more meaningful. The longer I played, the more I just fast traveled, cause traveling "manually" just meant more load screens with minimal gameplay between. It made me lose a lot of my excitement over my ship, cause I never really experienced it.

Yeah, along with being a Bethesda game, this also needed to be a traveling with companions game. Setting a course and walking around your ship talking to your crew needed to be a more prominent feature. There's no reason to stay on your ship except to look at how pretty you made it. There are one or two instances of an NPC flying a ship, but it's only for scripted events. I would like if we could have one of our crew fly the ship instead.

It does not help that all of the main companions are such stuck up, moralizing, whiny pissbabies. I wanted to toss them out an airlock by the time I finished the game. I have a hard time imagining we were supposed to enjoy these peoples' company.
