Topic is pretty much self-explanatory

I have to pay for repairs on my Corsair bomber much more then I do on bigger and more expensive ships.

Slight lack of attention that lead my ship to enter into sun corona cost me 2,5 mil.

How can this be explained through RP ??

repair costs are a constant and i do not think that any ship costs more than another one ( except you have to pay for more armour to be repaired )

an exaplanation might be that a sun corona damaged all your equipment ( including your expensive supernova ) - which tneh turned out to be more expensive than maybe heavy battle damage of another bomber, which only had component and armour damage, but no damage to the SN.

2,5 mil of repairs for a ship that costs like 6 mil?
Does not make any sense to me.
What kind of equipment you have on it??

the path to hell is paved with good intentions!

Supernovas.
Nuke mines.
Codes.

When irradiated or charred, these items will rack up your repair bill quickly. Fly fast and keep your eyes outside the cockpit.

A way a lone a last a loved a long the riverrun, past Eve and Adam's, from swerve of shore to bend of bay,
brings us by a commodius vicus of recirculation back to Howth Castle and Environs.

I also would like this answered, as today i went code-gathering in my pret after the server restart, i went through o41 and o11 and back (looting the wrecks as i went), this cost me 3.4 million credits to repair. This is rediculous as i only have 4 tizonas, a SNAC, a TCD, an Enh CM, and 2 angilito turrets.

Edit: Still sorry for leading you into the corona amigo!

its really not surprising - nor too difficult to figure out...

if you have a piece of equipment that costs 10.000.000 - and that piece takes like 20% damage, you ll have to pay a big repair bill.

the supernova is such a piece of equipment. - just think of what a Falcata with cheeta thruster, SN, screamer mines and 4 codenames cost when it took around 50% damage from a radiation field.

its not your praetorian, its the equipment you have - a supernova costs 7 million base. - when it takes damage, it ll cost you a portion of that base cost. - just be thankful that armour doesn t take damage.... .

Nvm Monte, always glad to help.

This is definitely a change that came with the final version of Mod. I know for certain that these costs were far smaller in previous versions and they never exceeded 1 mil. Even when I had like 5% of hull left after the battle, I used to dock (I hate committing suicide, no RP sense) and they were less.

So, I don't see a point in raising repair costs to a ship who's nerfed beyond recognition anyways.

Seems Sirius forces want us to give up our beloved bombers.

The SNAC costs an absolute ton. to fix, mainly because the thing is so tough.

Damage you take from a battle is totally different than what you take from a radiation field or from flying too close to a sun. Radiation does far more damage to your weapons, hull, etc. then your opponents guns or mines will ever do, with the exception of them getting blown off of course. One reason why I don't like my cheetah thruster on my Sabre... going through any rad field will cost me about 3 mil, unles it's a REAL short run.

You ask me why Im weary, why I cant speak to you.
You blame me for my silence, say Its time I changed and grew.
But the war's still going on dear, and theres no end that I know...
And I cant say if were ever...
I cant say if were ever gonna be free.

getting hit by mines and missiles will rack up the repair bills too
