Can someone give me a huskybot prompt or question? I wanna keep fleshing myself out, and I come up with my best ideas when someone asks me something I haven't considered yet!
@kelseyhusky Repair facilities? Where are they, how do they get supplied? What are they outfitted to repair? When do they give up?
How do huskybots get fixed?
Gateway has multiple repair bays, in each major sector. The bays are sized for each class of platform. They are supplied using automated mining drones that harvest materiel from asteroids and other lifeless orbital bodies in the star systems surrounding Gateway. Some bays are unmanned, using assembly arms and automated fabrication, 3D-sintering/resin laser printing, and mechanical machining for manufacturing standardized parts. Other bays are staffed by functioning platforms, but those are also used for Gateway's ships, shuttles and equipment repairs. Those bays are also offered to Gateway's visitors, and are available for commission on a negotiated fee structure.
The bays give up after confirming the timestamp of the latest backup from the platform has synced through Packnet. New platforms can be built. The data is the important part.
