It will only allow one unit at a time to be heading for the bay to get
repaired.  Make sure you don't have something stuck somewhere heading for
the repair bay, but unable to get to it because of a wall.  The movement AI
can sometimes be a bit braindead about things like that.

Because they built the map that way.  I put a couple of engineers into an
