This guide for covers the core mechanics of dismantling ships, managing your scrapyard, and maximizing profit. Whether you are playing the original game or Ship Graveyard Simulator 2 , the goal is to break down massive vessels for valuable scrap. Getting Started
: Use the computer in your hut to accept contracts. These specify which materials you need to collect (e.g., low alloy steel) and provide the best way to earn early money and experience. Dismantling Mechanics
: This is the first facility you should focus on, as it allows you to craft more advanced raw materials and unlock better tools.
: Break down parts and throw them into your truck.
: Use your computer to have a new vessel delivered to your yard.
: Take your scrap to the recycling depot. You can manually sort items through a mini-game for a "combo bonus" or pay a resource cost for auto-sorting.
: Park your truck close to the ship's ladder or openings. You can "chuck" items from the ship directly into the truck bed to save time walking.
: Once you build barracks, you can hire workers to automatically collect specific materials for you.
