Default Re: Repair ships and other newbie questions

1) I have just started playing the gold demo (I'm on about turn 40).
I built a ship using a destroyer hull with a repair module which I hoped would be able to repair damage to my ships but I can't see how to do it. Have I used the wrong hull or am I just missing something?

2) Can I resupply at a space yard or do I need a resupply facility as well?

3) What is the equivalent of SE3's population minister? I've built a transport vessel which I think can transport population and I want a minister to handle the shuttling about of people.

Thanks!

1. Move the ship into the same sector as the damaged ship. It will start repairing the ship after that point.

2. This is tricky. You have to create a fleet and join the base and whatever ships you want resupplied with that fleet. Wait one turn and the infinite supplies for the base will fill up the ship's supplies when it evens up the supply levels.

3. Activate the minister for transports (I think) and then set the transports you want to use for population transports (make sure the design type is population transport) have their individual minister flag on. (Ctrl Y, or the face icon on the control panel.)
