Is there any way to actually repair a device in the game? Like, for example, a patch spider or a drive? Does it apply to any device, even those introduced by new mods? Right now I'm dealing with a damaged "communications array" (an item introduced by a mod) and I can't find a way to repair it nor can I seem to come across another one anywhere...

Any ideas anyone?

If the damaged device is installed, use an item that enhances it. For example, longzhu sphere on a damaged energy weapon.

If the damaged device is uninstalled, you cannot repair it (in an unmodifed game), unless the device is a Rasiermesser or Makayev weapon. In which case, you take it to its manufacturing plant and pay for repairs. For other devices, your best bet is to convert them into different items via Tinkers or Teraton fabricators.

If you want a mod, use the game-breaking Almighty Wrench. It fixes everything in your cargo hold [except armor].

For amour you can use Regenerative nanos, though hard to find.

Damaged items are a nightmare to repair....right now, I'm stuck with a damaged Patch spider (and I used my lost longhzu to fix my damaged shield).

Even worse is the lack of Tinkers towards the endgame - I'm forced to by all Makeyev/Raissermesser just to be sure I can repair my stuff when/if it gets broken.

For that reason I choose to either put ion-effect immune armor on or not fight the Venturi. Rather, dodge their shots and coax them to a friendly neighborhood CSC.
