Space Yard / Repair Bay questions

So, speaking repairs only, you mean that I could have a ship with several Repair Bay components in it and that would speed up repairs?

And do you also mean that having several Repair ships at the same location, with a single Repair Bay each, speed up repairs on a single ship? Or will that have no effect on the repair time?

Thanks.

Yes and yes. If you have a ship at a location with 1 repair bay level one, it will repair 3 comp's per turn. If you have 5 ships with 1 repair bay level one each at a location, they will repair 15 comp's per turn, etc.

I will always include a repair ship in every fleet for this reason. By mid game, a dreadnought with 5 level 3 repair bays will repair 40 comp's per turn and I don't have to send broken ships back to a space yard. You can also include a space yard ship in your fleet and retrofit your ships without having to go back to a space yard.
