ship repair (Small)

Postby Mohammed » Fri Dec 13, 2013 8:53 am

today's morning i woke up to my little brother poking my eyes so i would wake up he was dragging my laptop all the way with him he wanted me to open it for him at that moment i thought of ship repair costs and i wrote it on my hand so i dont forget this


shouldn't ship repair costs and what we pay to repair ships go to the treasury of the nation port of where u were repairing
maybe the workers are contractors for the nation

I agree with you Mo, it should go to the nation controlling the port.

It could be a possible building, similar to the banks. But that would have to be done late down the track

Sounds like a good idea. Perhaps we can make it percentage based and bind it to a central building too. the higher the level of this central building, the higher the percentage that will go to the treasury will be. We can attach more similar concepts on this building later.

Unless or until ship build costs are paid (in part) for by the nation (directly), repair costs should come at the expense of the owner.

Seems I have misread the suggestion. I've provided an update below. My vote still stands though.

Disapprove.

I think you misread what this suggestion was Dez, it seems to me it wants it to be that when you repair your ship, a portion of the gold you spend repairing it goes to the port you repaired it at-as payment to workers at the port. You are paying out of your own pocket still, this just changes where that gold ends up. Instead of a void, it goes to a nation. Or at least part of it does.

So if for example someone suffered a nasty raid, and got some serious damage to their ships, and repaired it all for 100K gold, then the port they repaired at gets that gold, and it goes to the nation.

I think this makes some sense, as you are spending gold for workers to repair damage, so that gold should go to the port and nation.

As a noted shipyard I am happy to undertake repairs for those lacking the necessary skills wharves or rum. I might slip a small commision towards my nations coffers but lets keep this trade free!

Yes it seems that I have. Was trying to read it and had my dog barking and kids screaming in my ear.

Even though my interpretation was incorrect, I still disapprove.

Losing a battle negates repair costs as ships are automatically repaired.

Ships can also be repaired mid route. What determines which port the repair costs are sent.

Additionally, ship repair is a form of gold sink. While it may not be much, it does add up.

I agree with dez although it isnt a bad suggestion. Disapprove personally as the gold goes to the population to fix the ship and no where else anyways theoritically.


Disapprove as well - Vane
