Hi Commanders,
I have just upgraded to PowerPlay 1.3 and landed my Federal Dropship (build at the end of the post).
At the station, the repair cost of the ship integrity (which was at 98% remaining) was an astonishing 200k! 200k for only 2%! (PS: I am not whining, just surprised)
I have a few questions and hope someone can give me some official answers:
- How is calculated the repair cost for hull integrity? the Dropship costs about 20m, military grade bulkhead is 18m, the total cost of my build is around 60m. How do you get 200k for 2% out of these?
- Would it mean that repairing 100% hull integrity is about 10 millions?
- What is the effect of having 50% hull integrity? Does the ship take 50% more damage? Or is the hull 50% less resistant to damage (= take 100% / twice the damage?)
- Does the hull integrity affect the resale price of the ship? If not, it might be more interesting to sell you old ship at 10% resale cost, and get a new one rather than fixing the hull integrity (depending of the hull integrity remaining and price of the ship of course)
- If it does affect the resale price of a ship, how does it affect it?
- What affects ship integrity? Supercruise? Collision? Getting some hits from thermal / kinetic weapons?
EDIT: We are talking here about hull integrity, not hull/module damage!
EDIT2: Fuel cost has increased as well. I am actually fine with that since, unlike for hull integrity repair, a workaround is to carry a fuel scoop and spend a few moment refilling the tank(s) after each jump.
My build:
