Ouch....my battleship hurts: Ship Repair

Post by dwesolick »

Wouldn't it be nice if, in WitP, you could designate "priority" ships for repair while in dock (say, in Pearl, Frisco, Brisbane, etc). In other words, instead of all damaged ship classes repairing at the same rate, you could select that banged up CV or BB for "hot" repair (to the detriment of the other ships, of course)? Since this was done in reality, perhaps it could be a feature?

Hi, (Alpha version remember) The system as I understand it allows this. And you can speed up construction as well (but only by delaying another ship)
I have not yet tested this aspect.

I'm not retreating, I'm attacking in a different direction!

GREAT! Thanks for the info. Now, if we can just "speed up" shipment of WitP! :)
