ZZZy a lot of this is from memeory:

The % chance for learning an MT item plans from scrapping depends on the number of items in each fleet scrapped. Each component scrapped in a fleet gives a 1% chance to learn how to build it. This is capped at 25% maximum for any fleet. Hence the standard way to transfer plans is to use 6 fleets, each with 25 components in it. Also iirc basic tech is checked before MT plans so it is possible that you'll get tech and not the plans. Never tested to see if you can get both a tech level and the plans for an item in the same year.

Now we did do some testing back in 1998 and it appears that you cannot transfer plans to another player without transferring the ships. I.e. unlike regular scrapping, you must own the ships you are scrapping to have any chance of learning the MT item plans.
