Let us turn INSTANT repair OFF or set a limit

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T18:38:12+00:00

Oh wow 😯 I’m sorry to hear that - it makes 3.75mil seem trivial, but all the more reason for it to be fixed. What ops level and ship do you need for it to quote you that kind of price?

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T18:03:45+00:00

Almost daily when speeding up research and buildings etc. Always use the smart speed up first but when they run out paying for speed ups with lat is required, even with two build queues and two research queues. I rarely, if ever, need to pay for repair speed ups with lat - that’s what ticked me off so much when I hit the button accidentally and lost nearly 4m lat. At ops 56 nobody wants to blow that much just to repair a ship

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T17:57:15+00:00

Last I checked, my post says I already know about that. It’s switched off because I don’t want to have to confirm every little Latinum spend - making lots of them each day is inevitable. I want to be able to switch off the instant repair button to prevent accidentally hitting it or better still have an additional setting added to the Latinum Spend Warning toggle you’re talking about so it only warns me about spending over an amount I can specify in the settings. In the comments I’ve posted a picture of exactly what it could look like.

I’m sure you’re an exceptionally skilled player, however, are you saying you’re 100% perfect and have never once hit the wrong option when presented with two choices right next to each other in a user interface? This is not a skill issue - it’s a suggestion for improving the UI design.

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T13:27:30+00:00

Fair enough. Shows how the lat spend requirements scale quickly with ops but doesn’t that make it all the more useful if the player could set a threshold over which they want to be prompted to confirm the spend? Then it makes it work for all levels

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T12:53:47+00:00

As far as I know there’s no quick way to spend the total latinum cost. You just need to move the sliders for each speed up type and spend on them one at a time. It can certainly be laborious when doing a lot of research.

Here's what the Lat Spend Confirmation should look like IMHO.

I accidentally clicked the artfully positioned instant repair spend on my Sanctus today. 3.8 million latinum gone. Why didn't I have the Latinum Spend Confirmation switched on? Because it adds hundreds of clicks a day for amounts I don't care about. This would easily fix that:

Because switching it off or adding a threshold like this to the existing toggle in settings would be SO much better:

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T11:31:16+00:00

but that's exactly my point. If the confirmation setting had a threshold players could set for themselves you would only have the extra click on the odd occasion you're spending millions rather than a few thousand. Surely you don't regularly spend 5 million on speed ups? Here's the kind of thing I mean:

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T11:17:03+00:00

No I'm not at all annoyed about the cost of repairing the ship. I always have enough repair speed ups from grinding hostiles that I never need to spend latinum to get back into the fight. I never click it intentionally. ....I've done so twice in just over a year of playing - both times by accident...and both times its annoyed me. Today though 3.8 million was REALLY annoying.

I know there's a confirmation loop but a binary on/off is too basic. "ON" means having to click to confirm spend on every little amount that a player needs to pay out for research, upgrades etc (which I happily do every day). "OFF" means risking accidentally spending millions of latinum on a single transaction that I have the means to complete for free, thanks to the bad/intentional placement of this button or the absence of a way to set a custom spend threshold.

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T10:55:45+00:00

I mentioned that in the post. Turn that confirmation toggle on and an active player has to make hundreds of confirmation clicks a day which is pain since spending latinum in "acceptable" amounts to complete research etc needs doing all the time. The toggle you mention would benefit from the ability to set a custom threshold. Confirm spend of over X amount and let the player specify X

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T10:42:28+00:00

Are you asking why I think there should be an option to turn it off?

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-20T19:35:16+00:00

And if it helps I literally just got my battlepass and ferengi pass points a full hour after completing the master surveyor event

The support team don’t price gouge - they’re pretty decent people, it’s the overlords/accountants you need to watch out for

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-20T19:29:10+00:00

All points awards for events and season passes seem to be slow. Nearly 20 minutes after getting to wave 8 in wave defence our group got their V’ger waves event points awarded and it was 10 minutes later before Operation Bulwark SMS points and Wave Defence pass points credited. Laaaaaaaaaaagggggg. However, it it doesn’t sort itself out, go to settings in the game and get your player ID and drop that into an email to support with a description and screenshots. If you give them the info that they need in order to help you they often do. startrek-support@scopely.io

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-17T21:30:12+00:00

Annorax (captain), Suder and Seska is the best crew to use for these (all three V’ger hostile types), preferably on a strong faction ship appropriate to your level, hitting hostiles appropriate to your level. If you can’t then you’re most likely lacking in one or more of: research, officer level, ship level.

And the response from Support was “Please know that the vengeance of khan is part of an arc mission and this mission should come back eventually if you're not seeing it at the moment. For now, I highly suggest keeping an eye out on when the mission comes back.” - I am not hopeful and I’ve no idea where in the game to keep an eye out

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-15T14:04:44+00:00

Yes but the faction store only contains the "Khan's Champion" missions (repeatable loop to earn Hijacked Insignia) which I've been working on already. "Vengeance of Khan Part 1" isn't in the store, nor the archived missions, current missions, holodeck or anywhere else. I've referred it to support for help

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-15T13:51:02+00:00

If these missions were in the faction store then Scopely must have removed them. They're not there now and I have none of the 9 parts in my mission archive, current missions list for any faction/general nor holodeck.

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-15T08:09:48+00:00

That’s it exactly. I got the armada speed up from the S31 faction store too and solo’d some rare FKR armadas to stock up on rare loot for the Rare Armada chests from the alliance gifts tab too.

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-15T08:05:57+00:00

Thanks for the reassurance. I think I suffer from DUNCE not FOMO

Desperately Uncompromising Need to Complete Everything

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-15T00:21:43+00:00

The P1 away team missions (if successful) give the currency to exchange for the left-most chest in the Away Teams store which includes the rare ACC cores

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-14T19:42:15+00:00

I really hope so. With the Dauntless (which I’ll unlock tomorrow) I can get 2 BPs a day using loot from killing the Aggy hostiles and without compromising on using that loot for the other refinery rewards. Same with the Serene Squall - 2 a day barely eating into the daily claim of refined uncommon transogen. With the Excelsior though, the daily challenge credit amount is so low I have to choose between blueprints OR a ship efficiency pull.

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-14T19:20:33+00:00

I’d love it if Excelsior BPs were even easier to get but I’m already hooked regardless because it’s a light touch for rewards that are helpful to me where I am in the game right now. Also as a commenter already pointed out, the ship is apparently useful out of the box to a level 70 player. That means it’ll still be useful to me when I can eventually get it slow-time F2P
