To clarify, in this build the way restocking works is that every single item in a persons dropsuit is added by the number X that you want to restock. This inevitably leads to waste as at times you simply do not need more than one or two items to be restocked at that moment. In order to get to those specific items you need to navigate more menu options, go into edit, and point and restock to each individual item in order to avoid waste.

The E3 build of the game employed a much more elegant means of restocking. In that build of the game when a person restocked to number X then it wouldn't add to the amount of any of the items in your dropsuit that were already beyond X. To me this method of restocking made sense and was a far more efficient means of restocking different vehicle / dropsuit fittings than what is currently in the game. If I needed 20 of dropsuit Y then me restocking that dropsuit to 20 would mean that I could use that dropsuit exactly 20 times barring other dropsuit fittings using the same equipment. That meant that if I had two of the same module fitted to the same dropsuit, me restocking to say number Y, the module would be fitted to 2Y because the system knew that I'd be using 2 of said item at every individual spawn. And of course, as mentioned, if I had already had 45 of a certain item on a fitting that I was restocking to 20 then that item would be ignored on restock.

In summary the E3 build (or at least the build we had that preceded the increase in prices to vehicles) version of restocking was quicker and more cost effective than whatever means of restocking is currently in the game, and I'd like to see a revisit to the old method.

So, basically, you want to restock to instead of restocking by?

Make it happen CCP
