Salvage allocation discussion

To make salvage more equitable, I propose the following system:

Each individual defender get 40% salvage of their own defending ships that DIE.
Defenders get 10% salvage of the attackers ships that DIE divided up according to their proportion of the defending fleets value.

This makes it a lot fairer in "big" multiple fleet battles where defending fi/co (or fr etc) gets completely owned whereas the big cr/bs defending fleets dont lose a ship and steal the majority of the salvage (from the fi/co that died). By recieving salvage on your own ships that die will help eleviate this problem - and allow for what I believe salvage was originally intended for - helping planets whose fleets get owned recover.

Please discuss.... I honestly dont see any downside to this - and it should of been in place from the start

Re: Salvage allocation discussion

30% not 40%, I hope. Otherwise I'm inclined to agree. Consider a fleetcatch that sends non-targetted/targetting ships to defend to lower target salvage.

Re: Salvage allocation discussion

This seems a fair idea, but like Jester said: Maybe not 40%.

Re: [Discuss] Salvage allocation

It's already 45% atm

I've raised this issue myself once too (before suggestions forum even existed), so I fully agree.

Re: [Discuss] Salvage allocation

form the current combat engine this is impossible, however there are some changes planned which might make it easier - having said this regardless of how easy it is this is a good suggestion and would no doubt improve things so it should be done at some point - Approved
