Sucking mats from other Ships' Resource Boxes

Recommended Posts

If your Company has several ships docked next to each other with crew left on Repair Duty, will the Repair Crew draw resources from the other ships if the one they're on runs out of certain mats?  Or are they restricted only to the ship upon which they are stationed?  I have a feeling they'll pilfer from the neighboring ship if it's also in the Company.  Seems logical.

If the resource box, food trough, food larder, or possibly even ammo box are within range, anything in the company can and will use it, I think. Though the resource box might be the only exception.

I'm fairly certain Merlin is right, everything BUT the box is fair game. I keep a Galley in between 2 brigs and have never had one leech from the other.

I dont think they do.  When crew looks for pay, they scan nearby resource boxes but when you repair a ship, the ship scans its own resource box.

Unlike other proximity based objects, ships can only have one chest.

Or to put another way you can help out your allies.  It's a matter of perspective I suppose.
