on my rebel alt i finally made it to 3-3-3-3 in Vortex and i've been playing with the repair ship command and the ship shows up and then just flies around. I cant /comm it and talking to it in spatial doesnt work, it gives me a estimate and tells me to request a repair or something. I even clicked on the icon again for it and nothing happen, it was still flying around and I was still damaged from a gunboat runin. Does this work at all?

I have never been able to make it work. When it comes up I type /comm and it says it will cost me xxxx to fix my ship, request repairs if I want to proceed. Then thats its, /comm again does nothing and you cant dock.
I think its broke.

As the instructions say ingame, you need to be out of combat, and hit the command again once the ship arrives. Since I am the only one allowed to use my ship, and my groupmates are stuck travelling to wherever for repairs, I never use it. If it arrived quicker, was /comm-able by anyone in your group, and took less time than flying to a 100% space station, I would use it. As it is, its just one less button on my toolbar.
The only Rebel Pilot specials I keep are IFFscramble, vrepair and vrepairother, and jumpstart.
