Re: Mod idea: Repair pods
If we're talking fighter hulls or comps with the repair ability, then why not just increase the "efficiency" by decreasing cost? It's more efficient to construct them. The cheaper they are, the more you build in a turn. The more you have, the better you repair.

Re: Mod idea: Repair pods
Repair drones would be brilliant for stranded ships. Also, by restricting the repair ability to drones you stop them from being too powerful because of the drone's limited lifespan.

Re: Mod idea: Repair pods
Can you send drones to your own ships? I don't think the Attack button works like that, and that could be a problem for repair drones.

Good point. Drones would nto work at all. Well, not very well anyway. You could move your pod ferry to the site of the damaged ships and launch the repair drones I suppose.

It could be an interesting way to resupply ships.
