Fleet Auto-repair

[oddgit]

Hi, am I missing something, shouldnt a fleet with an Aux ship auto repair? Is it just that the thing does not have enough supplies?

Repair only takes credits I thought? If the ship is set to 'supply fleet' they should repair AFAIK. Keep in mind though I always turn my global resupply setting to the highest at the game start and then forget about it. Not sure if there's a point they stop repairing, maybe your setting is too low?

Make sure resupply is set to high for the entire fleet. If resupply is at a lower setting then the fleet might not repair lesser amounts of damage. If resupply is off then the fleet will not repair at all outside of natural repair rates.

Global Resupply is set to high. I have checked in on my patrol fleet a few times and each time i had damaged ships. I just assumed they would dock with the aux and repair themselves as long as the aux is stocked, which it is. I have not closely watched them so i could just be visiting at bad times.

I have the same problem. I have tried to set fleet supply in global to high, as well as doing it on the fleet commanders. They do not auto repair for some reason.

Have you made sure to set your aux ship to "Resupply for commanders fleet" command? Instead of a simple follow or defend command.

yep, its set to supply fleet, it's little M trade ship is out gathering stuff for it too.

I have exactly the same issue and have done as suggested above. My fleet never autorepairs no matter what I do. Begining to think carriers and aux ships are a total waste of time (other than providing a temporary hidey hole for fighters). I'd rather poke a needle in my that Individually repairing 100 ships...

Definitely can work. Here's a screenshot of a somewhat battered Rattlesnake (belonging to a gate defence fleet in one of my Split games) auto-repairing at the fleet's aux: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6i302h3q568f4 ... 1.jpg?dl=0
Fleet's command carrier & aux are set to low resupply, with trade turned off (because I don't trust them not to launch their M freighters in the middle of a battle): https://www.dropbox.com/s/efmgdaluy8yog ... 1.jpg?dl=0
