Chances are that one of your ship girls was damaged during your first sortie. If not, they certainly will be in short order, so you had better learn to '''repair'''.

Click the Repair button on the Main Screen. You will see your repair docks (two by default; more can be purchased in the cash shop.) Click a dock to see a list of your ships, by default ordered by remaining HP. When you select a ship, you will see a screen similar to that on the right.

Every repair costs a large amount of steel and a smaller amount of fuel. By clicking the slider, you can also use an '''Fast Repair Item''', which looks like a bucket when received as a drop/reward. These are more abundant than you might expect- it may be possible to run out of them if you use one on every single repair, but don't hesitate to use them on particularly long ones.

By clicking the slider, you can also use an '''Instant Repair Item'''(also as "buckets"), which looks like a green bucket with the word 修復 on it.

Click the button on the bottom right to start the repair. Unlike when building ships, there's no need to 'claim' a repaired ship. Also, there is a bug that may be of interest to KanColle addicts; if less then one minute remains on a repair timer (or any timer in KanColle, in fact- expeditions are also affected) (except when building ships, they have unsucessfully tried to patch this) it will be completed immediately upon switching screens.

Finally, if you change your mind about waiting for a repair to finish, you can click the green button on the right of the dock at any time to use a bucket and complete the repair instantly.

Even if your ships didn't take damage, you will need to '''resupply''' them. Click the Resupply button on the Main Screen.

The Resupply screen is sorted by fleet and appears fairly straightforward. Click on one or more ships to select them, then click on the bottom right button to refill their fuel and ammo. (You can also refill only fuel or only ammo if you wish.) Easy, right? Unfortunately, it's not nearly that simple.

Fuel+: Refuel only

 

 

Ammo+: Resupply ammo only

This is not clearly shown on the Resupply screen itself, but refilling fuel and ammo also refills other consumables attached to ships, most notably airplanes that were shot down. These also cost materials to refill- in the case of airplanes, bauxite is consumed. If you don't have enough bauxite, not all the airplanes on your ships will be refilled, and you'll be unable to refill those again until you spend some of the ship in question's fuel and ammo on an expedition or sortie.
