FT2 p.35 talks about repair. In the campaign system I'm currently
working on, what's done with damage control is referred to as
"jury-rigging", as opposed to "repair" which is what happens at a naval
base. It's more effective because:

- you get to shut down the rest of the ship while you're working
- it's not being done in the middle of combat
- there's less time pressure
- there are more replacement parts available
