Quote:It would be cool to bring a large repair ship to an ongoing battle, hang out on the outskirts, and have your allies come to you for repairs without having to dock on a station. To keep balance, I feel the repairs would have to take a decent amount of time to complete, so that it's not just a quick "zap" and you're fixed. Abuse is always a big concern.
Quote:If healing turrets were only mountable on repair ships ... Makes thier lifes easier and can't really be abused. Could introduce new tactics in combat as well. Meaning that Repair ships will become the enemys primary target. Giving everyone else the job of defending them in order to keep a fleet in service.
I think these "Repair Turrets" will be balanced in a way that it will take longer than just *shoop-da-woosh* to repair a battleship, for example.
Repair ships could fly through sectors and give repairs to players who need them, not only after a huge capship battle. They might also take some credits for the service!
