« on: December 12, 2011, 08:31:16 AM »To undertake a general overhaul ( maintenance clock reduction , not refit to an improved design ) of vessels , do the vessels have to be either :-Orbiting a colony with sufficient maintenance facilities (1 per 200 tons displacement) and minerals (typically a minor amount). Note that 1 maintenance facility can handle any number of ships simultaneously, i.e. it only takes 5 facilities to overhaul 20x 1000 ton FAC, not 100 facilities.
a) orbiting a planet with a shipyard dedicated to the applicable design
b) orbiting a planet with generic shipyards
c) orbiting a planet with maintenance supplies
d) some other parameters
advice would be appreciated so that i can spread the overhauls throughout my colonies rather than sending all vessels to earth which is becoming overwhelmed with vessels required refits as well as overhauls.
