Hi,
I ususally run Weapon Overload 3, and have read that it causes damage. Now, I repair all the time at Talus station, so, does this cause my weapons stats to drop permanently, or are the hitpoints just dropped until I repair ?? Same with Engine, Cap, and Reactor Overload, if you could answer this as well.
Thanks in advance

None of the damage from level 3 or below overloads will cause decay. Just run them, and as long as you don't take any extra damage, you're fine.
Level 4 programs cause damage that leads to decay.

When a component gets damaged (armor or hitpoints), and you get it repaired (or repair it yourself), it receives a little decay. What this means is that the Maximum stat on your armor/hitpoints decreases a little bit. In my experience, with Cap Overload 4, it does 16 points of damage, and when I get it repaired it decays by about 1 point. Also decay WILL STOP at about 10 points (Maximum armor/hitpoints). (Be warned: This also goes for chassis hitpoints too, so the more you go BOOM, the more easily you go BOOM.)
