tbridges -> Allied Shipyards (9/12/2009 9:26:09 PM)

What's the best way to increase the size of an Allied shipyard? I would like to increase the size of the shipyard at PH. If I turn off repair for all the other resources and just leave repair "On" for the shipyard, will this focus resources on the shipyard so it will build up faster?



SimonDC -> RE: Allied Shipyards (9/12/2009 9:49:38 PM)

To expand the shipyard yes, but I notice you say repair. If the airfield or runways or port are damaged they will be fixed first. They have to have zero damage before you can begin to expand the port, airfield, or defenses.

I say repair because that is the only thing I can control on the Resources displays. I don't want to increase the Port, the Airfields or the Fortifications, I want to increase the size of the shipyards. (Listed with the other resources...Manpower, Light Industry, etc.)

The editor.

Beppi is correct; you can't change the size of Allied shipyards without using the editor.  Only the Japanese player can do that.



SimonDC -> RE: Allied Shipyards (9/13/2009 4:35:34 AM)

tbridges, You can increase Allied shipyards up to their maximum. In my game Pearl started as 70,000 at the start because I hadn't built up the port. Once the port was at level 8 the shipyard was 90,000 give or take. You can't expand them beyond the maximum port size but you do need to maximize the port size. It has nothing to do with the industry buttons at the bottom of the screen, just a function of the maximum port size. If I recall correctly Alameda will increase to a large shipyard but it starts small since the port is not well developed at the beginning.

Wrong I'm afraid. You are referring to port size and docking limits - the OP is referring to REPAIR SHIPYARDS (this is a function of the industry buttons at bottom of screen).

As Allied you cannot expand Repair Shipyards, only Japan has that option under the Production system.

At scen1 start PH is a level 7 port with max docking limit of 104,000tons and an max individual ship size of 60,000tons. The separate Repair Shipyard has a size of 100 (equals 100,000tons max capacity)

I just started Scen1 as the Allies and the shipyard at PH in my game starts out at 70. Does this mean it was damaged in the attack and must be "repaired" back up to a max of 100?



SimonDC -> RE: Allied Shipyards (9/13/2009 5:39:42 PM)

tbridges, I may have misspoken earlier. You can't expand the shipyard beyond its max but it will increase in capacity as you expand the port size. At least that is my experience with PH, by the time the port is fully built up the shipyard should be 90,000 or so in capacity.



Smeulders -> RE: Allied Shipyards (9/13/2009 5:44:45 PM)

Well, you may have that impression due to the shipyard being repaired at the same time as you are expanding the port, however, to my knowledge the two aren't related.

@ tbridges, indeed, part of the PH shipyard starts out damaged. You have to repair it to get it up to its max capacity.

Thanks everyone! [&o]
