Is it quicker to repair the ships when the TF is docked, or disband them as soon as they arrive at port. I know, port size matters but I am talking about a TF in one specific port.
What are your experiences?:)

In fact, the smaller the ship, the quicker the repair :)

A DD or APD with a 40 System damage can easily be repaired in Rabaul or Truk while to repair a CV or BB with the same level of damage in these ports will take a very long time ...

Status: offline 		The thing is that I have a CV with 17 system damage sitting disbanded in my port in Cairns. It took 2 weeks to knock off about 3 sys damage and I was just wondering, what would have been more efficient.

Status: offline 		Greetings,

2 weeks to knock off 3 sys damage is an excellent rate of repair, from what I've seen. In one of my previous games, I put [I]Hornet[/I] in L'ville on 1 December with 15 points of sys damage. By 1 March, she was down to 12 points. Repairing capital ships in-theater, even if only slightly damaged, has been excruciatingly slow, in my experience.

By the way, L'ville was a fully developed, size 9 port, with 300k+ supplies, for the duration of the time mentioned, and [I]Hornet[/I] sat and did nothing the entire time. Just in case anyone was curious.

Regards,
Randy

Also in short supply were:

Status: offline 		My experience is that ships with over 70 flotation damage docked in a size 2 port will tend to get worse. What is others' experience? Anchored in a size 3 port they always get better.
Does the rating of the naval commander of the task force affect the repairs of the ship? If so, what is the critical rating? I replayed a damage situation once with Wilkinson in command after having the ship commander did with it and it seemed to make a difference but that may have been random variation.
Do people playing PBEM games think it is kosher to go into the editor to sheck out co's full ratings?
