Mend Projector

Mend Projector is a support block that repairs nearby damaged structures by periodically applying healing pulses. It functions as a stationary repair source that must be supplied with its required inputs to operate; it continues to draw power and booster items even when not actively repairing. Multiple Mend Projectors can be deployed to increase repair throughput because their healing effects stack with each other.

Base operational characteristics:

• Healing percentage per pulse: 11%.
• Reload time between pulses: 4.17s.
• Full repair time (to restore a fully damaged target under a single projector’s continuous pulses): 37.91s.
• Required inputs: 90/sec (must be supplied to maintain operation).

Booster interaction and effects:

• Mend Projectors accept booster items to amplify performance. A single listed booster entry shows a booster consumption rate of 0.15/sec.
• Applying boosters increases the healing multiplier to 2.36×, reduces the effective full repair time to 17.67s, and adds +6.25 to the projector’s repair range.
• Because projectors consume boosters while idle, manage booster supply carefully to avoid wasting resources.

Practical usage and placement notes:

• Place Mend Projectors behind defensive lines or adjacent to important production hubs to keep turrets, core buildings, and conveyors repaired during combat or accidents.
• Use multiple projectors focused on high-value or frequently damaged structures to take advantage of stacking and shorten repair time proportionally.
• Prioritize supplying both the projector’s primary required input and booster items; if booster supply is interrupted the projector still functions at base rate but loses the increased healing and range.
• Position projectors so their ranges overlap on critical structures; overlapping ranges from boosted projectors yield much faster repairs due to stacking.
• Because projectors continuously consume boosters, consider automated supply logistics (conveyors, routers, or unit haulers) to maintain efficiency and avoid overconsumption when repairs are not needed.

Mend Projector is best used as part of a layered support network combining steady base repairs with boosted, stacked units for peaks of incoming damage. Monitor input consumption and booster throughput to keep repair capability sustainable during extended fights.
