How to Repair Your Ship in Cubic Odyssey
Image Credits: Atypical Games, Cubic Odyssey
Yes, you can repair your ship in Cubic Odyssey, but the game makes it feel like a hidden mechanic.
To fix your damaged ride, you’ll need to open the ship’s Embark menu while standing near it. If it’s actually damaged enough, the option to repair will show up there.
If it doesn’t... well, keep reading.
Where the Repair Option Shows Up
Check the Ship Menu First
Stand near your ship and open the Embark or Pilot menu.
If your ship is officially “damaged,” you’ll see a repair option in that same spot.
If it’s not there, the game either thinks your ship is fine, or it's being stubborn.
Sometimes Visual Damage Doesn’t Count
Even if your ship looks like it barely survived a pirate ambush, the game might say it’s at full integrity.
This happens a lot.
Try flying around or letting pirates hit it again until the system finally admits it's broken.
That usually gets the repair prompt to show up.
What You’ll Need to Fix It
Once the option appears, you’ll need to bring some crafting basics with you.
These usually include:
Iron ingots
Wiring
Connectors
Fuel cells
The game will check your inventory, not your chests.
So, make sure the parts are on you before you try to fix anything.
If something’s missing, go mine it or buy it, then try again.
What If It Still Doesn’t Work?
Sometimes the repair option won’t show up at all, even after visible damage.
You can try leaving the planet, coming back, or even saving and reloading your game.
Also, sometimes the system doesn’t refresh properly unless something new damages the ship.
Try flying into a sniper or two... for science.
Final Blurb
The ship repair system in Cubic Odyssey mostly works... except when it for some reason doesn’t. Keep the right parts on hand, check your menu often, and don’t trust the ship’s “full health” claim if it looks like a flying toaster.
