Question about repair and repair state

April 5, 2003 7:59 AM from

What the manual didn't tell:
-Why are ships and stations in the early years permanently damaged? Where does the damage come from?
-How do you best get your ships repaired? Does orbiting planets give an advantage? Or stacking with starbases?

I don't know about the permanent damage, but its probably is caused by an increase in hit points without having any repair ability. The best way to repair is to put the ships in systems. Starbases don't do anything, but the Repair Bays module helps all ships in the sector.

If you get ANY hp bonus the max HP of all your units increases but not their own hp until they are repaired.
So any ship or starbase you had already built before getting a HP bonus (you get them from anomalies or various techs) will look damaged until they are repaired.

Ah, thanks, boys! What you say is making sense, also it doesn't make sense.
