How Does Vehicle Repair Work?

Again, good morning/afternoon/evening, all!

 

Unfortunately, I have recently stumbled upon the issue of being financially under-equipped in terms of Silver Lions. I've done some reading, both in game and on forums, and I still can't quite seem to figure out the answers to my questions. These being:

 

1.) Does my crew need to have a certain level of proficiency in certain skills to repair certain tier tanks? (Ex: Tier 3 tank will not repair at all without level 3 repair rank or some such)

 

2.) Is leaving the vehicle to repair free? Or does it still use SLs?

 

Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated! Best regards!

1: Yes, a crew cannot repair a tank for free if they are not the tier the tank is, I.E: a T-26 trained tier 1 crew cannot repair a tier 5 tank in the hangar for free. 

2: You can do both, leave the vehicle to repair for free will take time, but it is free, or you can repair it instantly for silver lions, hope this helps!

That is wrong. It will repair it for free. It will just repair it at the base repair speed.

A good tip is (if you play RB / SB) to have vehicle on all 5 (purchasable for S.L) slots and play them alternatively. And then switch nation. 

That gives you 35 different planes to fly in alternance. Flying one plane is 'buying' some time for free repair on the 34 others.

 

Also, always check, before changing nation, that your current preset is full of planes for repair. If you load a preset with damaged planes and swap for another preset before changing nation, the crew repair bonus won't apply.

Make sure you uncheck the box near the lower left corner of the screen, that gives you the option for automatic repairs after each battle.  I also leave the auto ammo refill box unchecked, as there might be ammo belts, bombs, etc. that I might never need to refill because I hardly ever use them.
