At one point, someone had suggested making the Warp Point creation ships one-shot ships like the SM ships that destroy stars. Granted, you pay a huge maintenance cost for SM ships already. What effect do you think it would have on the game if the SM components were non-repairable?

I have forgotten now. Did they require that SM components have to be repaired at a space station?

What? So "this component is destroyed after use" actually means "this component is DAMAGED after use but can be repaired" ?!

Is this damage repaired in a single turn like other damaged components?

This makes a HUGE difference in my current game (my first long-term PBW game). I've just now researched Warp-point manipulation, but was putting it off as the ships were going to take about 2.4 years to build. But if I can just repair the component, then WHO CARES how expensive they are to build, they can be reused indefinitely.

Granted I'm coming at this from the other angle, but in my opinion reducing them to true single-shot ships would make a HUGE difference.
