X3:TC Hub gate realigning

Post by X-Tie » Sat, 17. Jan 09, 20:32

Hey folks, just a quick question: I have been reading about the HUB and the realigning of gates. Is it true that once you've realigned them once, you can't do so again? Seems odd to me since the HUB tells me the cost of realigning is 10000 Ecells iirc. So can they be realigned more than once, or is it one of those things you have to think through?

IIRC they can only be realigned once each until you have finished all the repairs to the Hub

I see... but once all the repairs have been finished, you can?

I think you can realign each one once it's fully fixed, you don't have to wait until the very end of the mission.

The limit is on how frequently you can realign gates -- you have to wait two hours between uses of the command. And as NeverSnake said, you can realign fully-repaired gates without having to repair the remaining gates first.

The potential catch is that the first couple of ware deliveries will enable you to realign the first pair of gates once, but it'll need more work to be fully operational (i.e. freely realignable).
