This is a simple request, and it came to me as I began using Triage Nanohives more. Triage Nanohives prioritize repping before ammo distribution, to the extent that other peoples standing in the nanites will not receive ammo until everyone within the zone is has full armour. I think this prioritization should be spread even further across all Nanohives. Currently, it works like this:
1. Triage
2. Primary, Secondary and Grenades
My suggestion is that it works like this:
1. Triage (if the hive variant supports triage of course)
2. Primary and Secondary Ammo
3. Grenades
Resupplying grenades eats up my hives when I'm trying to get ammo to my teammates, and quite often blueberrys will park themselves on top of my hives to chuck grenades until the hive is spent. If my changes were implemented, grenades would not be resupplied until everyone in the hive's zone had full armour, and ammo. While this wouldn't eliminate the hive + grenade spam combo, it would make it harder to preform.
Thoughts?

Only supply depots should be able to resupply grenades imo.
Cheer up a bit will you

I don't think it does much to help the grenade spam problem.
You can effectively still carry three grenades that instantly kill targets within a very large zone, and if you're truly grenade spamming you're not really using your primary/secondary weapons.

Roll back the buffs to grenades like they did with the MD now that 1.2 fixed explosive hit detection and reevaluate from there. Stop putting a band-aid on a fix to a core issue.

I do think the OP has a valid point. It would cut grenade spam which OHk many people regularly and would provide much needed ammo when mercs run across them. Since a resupply is a resupply +10 points whether its for a grenade or for ammo there should be a qualifier for which goes first.

I'd even go as far as saying
Primary ammo
Secondary ammo
Grenades
Slow grenades resupply down |

But anyone could roll up on the people doing the grenade + hive combo and deprive them of their unlimited supply

Agreed with OP - this would at least cut it back marginally, and armor reping should always come first. |

I appreciate that this would certainly fix grenade spam. However, I was looking to hit some infield doubles before I swing for the fences with the nerf bat

Nanite Paste can easily make ammunition. But making a grenade from it is not as simple ^ |
