I was looking at the forum thread of the changes to universe 3 for the restart and this new aspect caught my eye....Motivating attack flights, but am curious with this as too how it works. Is there some kind of drawback to doing this motivation of a fleet (25% - 50% faster flight times) as in it can be only done once per day, or that it costs more gas then usual, ect. to do this to an attack fleet you are sending at someone ???? Otherwise wouldn't everyone just use it/do it on every flight they send out to attack that exceeds 40 minutes time.....making it sort of pointless then in my view, just speeding the game up overall would really accomplish the same sort of thing...so just looking for some clarification of this new option, thanks

9. Motivation
There will be a motivation in the flights - it will be affecting only the SPEED of the flight, and not the strength of the ships. You can motivate a flight with a start time more than 40 minutes. If the flight is between 40 and 60 minutes, you can motivate it up to 25% and it will be completed 25% faster. If the flight is over 60 minutes, you can motivate it up to 50% and it will be completed 50% faster. The flights of type Recycle CAN'T BE MOTIVATED..All other types of flights can be motivated and completed faster.

It affects only the speed of your ships, and yes - you can use it for every single time you make a flight. But that way it will cost you a hell lot of resources and therefor - it's not worth it. And there's the other kind of motivation. When you're in war with some alliance you can motivate your flights like so:

Come to think of it ... 50% speed motivation (in 1 hour flight or more) is 70 Nanocredits - It ain't that cheap, so not anyone could do it all the time ! And there is one small thing it must be mentionned - if you return your fleet before the mission is being completed in a short time, you get some small percent of your Nans recovered ...

Ok, thanks, so the drawback is it costs nanocredits to do this (motivate a fleet), correct? Thats what I was wondering about was whether it was just something everyone could do all the time (which would of been kinda pointless) but I see it's usefulness now, as it won't be used constantly by everyone and anyone then unless they just have too much money to burn lol
