IDIOT'S GUIDE TO FED2
FED AND THE ART OF SPACESHIP MAINTENANCE
SHIP REPAIRS
Right now there’s no way for your ship to get damaged so it won’t need repair, but once ship fighting returns to the game you will need to patch up your leaky hull or repair any bits of equipment that have been damaged in a fight.
You can repair your ship at any repair yard – most planets will have one, usually on the landing pad. In Sol you can find a repair yard on Earth, Mercury and Venus.
To repair your ship, the command is ‘REPAIR SHIP’. This fixes everything that is wrong with the ship.
You can get an estimate first with ‘REPAIR SHIP ESTIMATE’. Note that since the materials used in the repair are purchased from the exchange, there may be differences between the actual cost and the estimated cost of the repairs – the shorter the period between the call for an estimate and the request to repair, the less likely there is to be a significant change. It also means the cost will vary from planet to planet so it will pay to shop around.
Right now you won’t actually be charged for the repair, no matter what the game tells you. The charge will only be implemented when ship fighting goes in.
