Removed erroneous part of reply - I double checked the repair rate for manufactured craft and they get updated once/day unlike hired.
Line 15: Line 15:
:Avenger = 2%/day = 24 damage points per day (1200*0.02)
:Avenger = 2%/day = 24 damage points per day (1200*0.02)


:So it's the same rate. I'd assume all repair calculations are done on the hour (not the day), irregardless of craft type. --[[User:Zombie|Zombie]] 22:20, 28 October 2007 (PDT)

If I'm understanding the findings correctly:

At 1% per hour, does this mean that the hired ships are in fact the fastest ships to recover at a potential ~24% a day? Granted that's assuming they start reparing at 00:00..., but having continuous repairs hourly seems more efficient than having repairs once per day.

This might explain why I don't mind letting my interceptors get up close and take minor damage in the early months against Large Scouts. The can take a few hits and will be back up on their feet well in time for the next UFO sighting. Not having much hull points means they won't have as much damage to repair either...

Oh well, quiet informative nonetheless.

No, the hired ships don't repair any faster than the manufactured ones:
Skyranger = 1%/hour = 1 damage point/hour INT(150*0.01) = 24 damage points/day
Avenger = 2%/day = 24 damage points per day (1200*0.02)
So it's the same rate. It's just that the hired craft do the check every hour, while the manufactured ones are every day. --Zombie 22:30, 28 October 2007 (PDT)
