Automated Repair Dock
A swarm of hull drones on a charging rack, which crawl out between engagements and weld the station back together a plate at a time. They are slow, they are relentless, and they will not save you during a fight — but a station with a repair dock heals what a station without one simply carries forever.

Maintenance
Consumed continuously to keep the facility running. Starve it and it degrades.
SuppliedThe drones are out and working. The hull integrity readout is, very slowly, going the right way.
StarvedThe drones are racked and dark for want of plate and power. Every hole the last raid punched is still exactly where the last raid left it.
Upgrade Chain
Automated Repair Dock has no upgrade path — it is built once, at this level.
