Repair all ships in battle Module : Does it mean in space too?

from GalCiv3 Forums

I would like to confirm that the modules that say they repair all the ships in your fleet in battle mean they repair them in actual battle or only/also in space ( in the battlefield) where they don't really repair.

Else is there a way to increase the repair on spaceships other than upgrading or docking at planets/starbases???

I was thinking of creating mobile repair spaceships that repair my ships after battles.

The parameters are called tacticalrepair and strategic repair.  Tactical Repair modules can be researched via tech and placed on ships.  They only work during battle.  Strategic repair works outside of battle.  There is a strategic repair trait which can be chosen when creating a custom race.  Besides that, no other way currently to increase it.

 

I would however love to see some type of strategic repair techs become available in the tree at some point in the future.

I've never taken a repair module so far and was wondering the same thing.  Good to know.

I can't see taking a repair module now if I can squeeze another item on there instead.

I have used them a bit and so far they seem kind of good. Ships take forever to repair, especially late game when hit point pools are very large. If you have these you can attack weak opponents that don't do any damage in between major battles and get a boost to your ship repair. They really need to add some way to repair ships faster. After a ship gets low in HP I find many times they are out of the entire war getting repaired. They should add a large repair boost to shipyards if you park damaged ships there.

 

EDIT: I just realized you were talking about the mass repair modules, I haven't tried those. I was using the individual repair modules you have to install on each ship.

Weird that a ship can repair itself a few points in a 1 minute battle but the module will not effect any repairs outside of battle in the one week between turns?

Technically, everything is in space  :grin:
