Default Re: Warp Point Opening - how to measure distance?

Hmmm...I've never tried this, but what if you put an emergency pod on a craft with a repair bay? Couldn't it get repaired each turn after you use it so you could keep using it? Maybe I'll try this tonight...

This brings up a totally off-topic modding question -- if you put the "Emergency Energy" ability on a component (the ability that Emergency Propulsion uses), will this require that that component be repaired over a spaceyard?

I believe that repairing an Emergency Resupply Pod in open space was considered an exploit and removed. Hence the SpaceYard requirement in recent Versions.

He's right. Once it's used she gone. I don't know about a spaceyard though.

Does it require a Planet-bound SY or can the SpaceYard be on a ship?

It requires a planet-based spaceyard, I believe...

AFAIK, Spaceyard component is also able to repair Emergency Propulion. At least it works on my EP+SY equiped stellar manipulators.

It works for me too. The spaceyard component fixes those emergency propulsion components.
