That'll teach them traders to run! Pay yer taxes when due!
Gee, contribute to putting an honest body repair mans daughter through school or let you tie one on with Onionhead...? Let me get back to you on that.
As for fuel and repair costs, put the prices half way between what they were in 1.1 and what they were in 1.2.

One other detail: on Starting, I did not get the usual "ip address + port" but instead got this:
Server 54804964953884 x 19 [54.247.33.72:19364] EDserver#459. NOT normal. Check yours.
I am thinking to do some experiments this weekend. Buy a Sidey, consider that I only have 1000cr to spend, and doing some "get these resources to X" missions to see if new players even have a chance with these kind of numbers. Will report back.

Ship integrity repair was always outrageous on the conda. Has it finally trickled down?
i wish I had that. 224k repair for 1% for my fdl. Perhaps module dependent?
I haven't played in a couple of weeks so I haven't seen this problem resurface. Anyway, I haven't bothered with repairing wear & tear on traders and explorers in ages. So what if my hull is only at 70% of maximum? I can still jump to my heart's delight in a big ship and make a lot of profit or explore way out into the void. There is no reason to avoid big ships just because it costs a lot to optionally fix wear & tear. But for a fighter, I'll keep up the wear & tear repairs so that I can stay as healthy as possible when I'm out bounty hunting. And with the smaller fighters it should cost less, but as a percentage it still sounds pretty high. Just stay out of SC as much as possible for the time being. I think this must be a bug that will be fixed pretty soon.
On another point, it should cost much more to repair wear & tear over battle damage. If you take a laser hit that punches a hole through your hull, all you have to do is slap on a patch or replace a hull plate. That's pretty simple work that a monkey could do. But if the integrity of your entire hull is down 10%, you need to fix the entire hull! I could see this needing special equipment to repair your hull on the molecular level and a lot of time to do it. So, yeah, it should cost more, but not more than the insurance cost to blow up your ship and get a new one. That's just g stupid.

What? Hull damage repair (which is what you get from combat, not hull integrity repair) is as cheap as ever. Get your facts straight before commenting.
Exactly, and that's simply because the current insurance system is completely idiotic. But I'm pretty sure they'll fix it soon enough, too.

Hull damage and Ship integrity don't affect each other. You can have 1% hull and 100% hull integrity. So you can go PewPew all you want. What causes Hull integrity to drop is flying around in Super Cruise.
Yep.
The CG at Wolf 406 cost me a fortune in 1.2 because of the 1000Ls star to station distance.
Wasn't the whole point of the reduction of upkeep was because there was nothing that could maintain that cost except trading?
There wasn't much mentioned in the patch notes besides remarks like this. Has there been any response that this was a mistake? I know They have been increasing the profit scaling of other professions in this game, but is it enough to justify these kinds of costs on the larger ships?
i was happy i didnt have to pay for ship integriti for 5h, and now i get some hull dmg doing killer mission in my conda and ship integriti was on 98% and........... 1.5mln cr to repair, before 1.3 that was like 300-400k cr, what the hell ? Mission for 330k, hull dmg -4k and ship integriti - 1.5mln so i lost 1.2mln very not cool, this have to be some bug.
Imperial Clipper 1%... Its a Joke...

Clipper is my cheapest Ship. I don`t Fly my Phyton or Conda with such a Cost Joke -.-

Not to gloat .. but im glad i read forums before putting forth effort.. I have a A Afitted Python. and Im conisdering a certain power once i can confirm what rewards are. but traviling to this power would be about a 105LY trip from were im at.. witch considering the related post on ship integrity .. would probally cost me about 1m or more just to move to that system. 8 jumps.. 1% every 2 jumps proablly.. thats almost a 1m.. for the trip.. and thats IF i dont get stopped, fired on, have to fight back etc etc etc...
were is a grey hound when i need them..
Im logging off tonight.. i'll play when some of these royal glichups are fixed.

Not sure about that. Would unfairly penalize ships that use "hull tanking" as a tactic. I thought we were sick of infinite shields being the combat meta.
