I lost my ship to a crash/disconnect. Can it be restored?

During beta the devs restore genuine reconnect losses.

Get your loss manifest: Notifications > lost ship > Copy image.
Post it.
You need to be in a hub for the restore.

Warning

Since Beta Patch 2, a game tab left in the background for more than a minute disconnects. Keep the tab in front during a run; the devs haven't said whether a loss caused that way counts as a reconnect loss.
