The value decides nothing but the cursor. Above the fraction the engineer takes a damage action that has no cursor art of its own and falls back to the ordinary pointer; at or below it the enter cursor appears. Clicking folds the damage action, the enter cursor and the engineer’s repair cursor into one capture order, and what happens at the structure is settled again from the flags found there, so lowering the value cannot make an engineer damage anything.
At the engine default of 1 the damage action is unreachable, because a structure’s strength as a fraction of its maximum can never exceed 1. Any value below 1 opens a band in which a healthy non-allied structure shows no capture cursor at all.
