Does time in a zone matter?

[Adam Taylor]

Is there a limit to how long you can sit in an area before needing to move on?

Can I take as long as I want after a fight to get fully repaired? Or is there some sort of penalty for delaying?

When the Rebels catch up to you, you get warned about their capitol ships coming. Can they ever catch you? Or after you've destroyed the Rebel ship, can you sit there forever?

No time limit. you can sit wherever however long you want

I actully use this to a great advantage early on in the game,

look at there weapon, if they only do 1 damage (1 shot only) and you have 1 shield, just sit there, to level up your Engine person, your Pilot, and you shield.

Also, since i always start with the drone peps (Type A) early on in the game, if i know i can not get hit, i use the Ion weapon to kill there O2 since the Ion Cannon II shoots faster than the shield regen, allowing me to get more money early on, and faster.
