Vehicle Repairs

[Dak]

Archived from groups: alt.games.starwarsgalaxies (More info?)

I've read that SOE will soon be fixing the bug that allows you to fix your
speeder when leaving out at space/shuttleports.
Fixing this now leaves only 2 options to repair your vehicles at speeder
garages either in a static or player city.

For player cities, a mayor places a vehicle repair garage and can also apply
a "Usage Tax Fee" between 0 and 30 percent which is added to the surcharge
of a vehicle.
My questions are:
- are there player cities applying this usage fee and what percent ?
- do static cities also charge a percent above the repair cost ?
- how is vehicle damage cost calculated - meaning what is the rate applied.
Lets say your vehicle is 2400 and you've used 1000, what does it cost to
repair the 1000 ?
Tks

Different vehicles repair at different rates. Swoops cost the most to
maintain and Speeders the least. Player City Garages have a "tax" applied to
use them. Mayor decides tax. No big deal on "starting" planets, but on Dant
and Lok, Player cities are your only option...

That makes sense. On the more remote outposts you SHOULD have a harder
time finding goods and services..... Either that or have them set up
for factions.

I've always said that the remote planets should have a 10 minute
shuttle schedule..... and the more settled planets should have more
frequent shuttles. That seems more realistic to me. But then I'm just
a dumb player to the Devs.

The problem is when the vehical is disabled, it cannot be repaired. You have
to buy a new bike. Crate of bikes anyone? lol

Well I beg to differ, it might have at one time. But I had a swoop
that I let go all the way down to disabled and then wasnt able to
repair it at a garage. Got the error 'about not being able to repair a
disabled vehicle' makes sense though. Or otherwise there would never
ever be the need to buy new vehicles once you have one.

I will be glad when they have the HAM as a attribute that you can
view on the deed before you use it. Right now just because someone put
90% Experimental Durability doesnt mean it really does .. You have to
trust in the person that created the deed to be truthful.

There are two different things here:
1. A speeder that is repairable
2. A disabled speeder

Once a speeder/vehicle has reached the point that it is disabled - it cannot
be repaired.
I find it's safer not to go beyond 50% of damage and get it repaired
soonest. Once the speeder goes BOOM, that's a good indication that you've
already left it too long. A few more booms after that and you got yourself
a disabled vehicle and it's time to buy a new one.

I thought the flames were an option you had to pay extra for
