As the name says, we need to document multi-ship handling.
bought a rlaan ship which then was in use - hit transfer to get back to my Llama - had no way to get back to my Shizu (bug?). So bought a Hyena and went back to landing pad - it was there. So it kind of works, I'm just not clear what's expected behavior and what's a bug.

Info for the manual on ship multiple ship handling:
Tip: If you have a large hauler, you can fill the hold with commodities. When you swap to your lighter ship, the cargo stays in the hauler. You can then fly around in your faster ship, hunting business opportunities. When you find one, you can switch back to your large vessel, and sell the commodities.
This is not free, there is a fee based on how far and how many jump points the hauler has to travel to get to you. Basically you hire someone to bring that ship to you. But in the game that is instant. In any case, its guaranteed to get to you, even if you are in pirate infested areas.
I have a series of youtube videos on this from a much older version of VS:

Once we sort out a few bugs, I'll remake these, and any feedback on them are welcome. We can also start adding stuff to the VS youtube channel.

Transfer brings the ship to you.
Is the Shizu listed in the My_Fleet under Ship Dealer? If both ships are in the same base/planet, there's no transfer option. Just switch.
