I had this a couple of times. I give an order to a ship before I realise that it's being retrofitted at a yard. The ship starts doing what it was told to do, thereby aborting the retrofitting process.

The info panel shows that the ship's design is still the same as before retrofitting, but there's be a remark indicating that the ship is retrofitting from design x to design x. The ship's right-click menu doesn't have the retrofit submenu, right clicking on a shipyard only issues a patrol order.

Is there any way to make the ship to go back to the yard and continue retrofitting?

We'll check this one out. Sounds like a bug. If you cancel the retrofit by assigning another mission then you should be able to retrofit again later.

Just to clarify: the ship in question hadn't actually started retrofitting at the space port yet? It was just on the way?

Sorry for the belated reply, I was without internet access for a couple of days. Not that it matters now, it seems you've already addressed this issue in the 1.0.3 beta.

Anyway, the ships in question were in position over a space yard, so they were either being retrofitted or queueing up for it, but I didn't check which.
