Hey,
If you don't take into account the initial cost of having an extra shipyard, and that's an hefty cost at start, but much less of a problem when your nation develops... what would be the benefits of having x slipways for a given shipyard versus having 1 slipway for x shipyards?
On the other hand, having a single slipway per shipyard means:
- faster growth of the SY
- less problem in class retooling
- as the SY output is strictly linear to its size, a SY with a single slipway but twice the size of a SY with 2 slipways will produce as much ship.
So really, I'm considering revising my policy of having 2 slipways per shipyards.
The drawbacks:
Bigger initial cost, as you need more SY
More interrupts, as unless you synch SY, you get more often single ship out of the docks, and no batch.
