Repair math? Ugh.

I have a defense map, and one of my heroes has the ordinary repair ability. Problem is, the math utter baffles me as to how I can balance this ability to charge a large amount + take a lot of time to repair this building. I've tried setting these things high and low, and am tired of relaunching the map over and over again--just how do I adjust the settings for repair in an ability to get the desired effect?

Nobody posted a tut on how it is calculated so figure it out

Isn't all of that information determined by each building's stats in the object editor? I wasn't aware that the Repair ability determined anything.

I believe:

Stats - Repair Gold/Lumber Cost is the amount of gold required to repair a building from 1 health to full health

Stats - Repair Time is the amount of time (in seconds) to repair a building from 1 health to full health

Of course, the more units repairing, the values change.

Edit: This is for the stats of the actual building, in the object editor.

Ammorth is correct.

If you want each ability to repair differently, base them off the heal ability and make it work on buildings (if that's possible...haven't tried).

Oh, crap! I'm a dunce, I was so focused on the repair ability that I neglected to notice those costs in the building itself! Sorry about that, thanks guys.
