I have had the Enterprise and Lexington in Seattle and Los Angeles respectively, initially to repair damage. However both of the ships now have a SYS of 5 and 6 respectively.

Both ships are elligible for an Upgrade, and I have checked that the Upgrade toggle to YES, but for over a month now neither ship has upgraded ( basically the 12.7mm MGs should be replaced with 20mm Oerlikon ).

Both ports have repair point available over the Duability of the ships ( e.g. Seattle has 400 Ship Repair points, and the Enterprise has a durability of 80 ).

What am I missing

Thanks

Peter Marshall

Do I have to get all of the Original Damage Repaired before they will upgrade ( only asking as Enterprise has been at 5 SYS for at least 2 weeks ) ?

Thanks.

Peter

The upgrade is instant, it happens as soon as a ship eligible goes into a port with a repair yard *and* is not damaged.

It does not take multiple turns, you just have to meet the no damage condition.

Status: offline 		Having just run my next turn, Enterprise has Upgraded. However there was still some original damage, SYS damage has gone from 5 ( Original Damage ) to 8 but the Equipment has changed.

Hopefully the Lexington will upgrade in a turn or two ( Sat at L.A. with 6 Sys damage )

Status: offline 		The limit may be 5 SYS, not 0 SYS, can't honestly remember. It's basically there to prevent an upgrade from sinking your ship as the upgrade itself *adds* SYS damage.
