i want it to be big but isint tonnage and hp the same thing???

For most components, the two values are identical, but not always.

See Armor for example; 10KT space, but 40 HP.

Just make it the opposite, giving a large space, but few hitpoints.

PS: In the data files, Hitpoints = "Tonnage Structure"

Repair components fix anything in the same sector, including the ship with the repair bay.
You can add an extra crew quarter requirement to a hullsize, but it can't be based on whether you have a repair bay or not.
An alternative is to add 10KT to your repair bay, and give it a "Crew Quarters" ability.

For P&N, I've made Machine Shops (20KT, 1 repair at top tech), and I've also got organic lifesupport components (for living ships) that heal 1 per turn.
