If I fit 4 militia drop uplinks, I can only have one uplink active at a time, right? Should I not be able to have 4 active uplinks at the same time since I'm expending 4 slots? Maybe something to consider as part of the Amarr bonus, or all round?
Its never worked like that. The "Max Deployed" number for a piece of equipment is exactly that, you can only have that many of that particular item deployed, regardless of how many you are carrying.
Hit me up in game or on SA/IRC if you want coaching in how to properly spam equipment. |

Hit me up in game or on SA/IRC if you want coaching in how to properly spam equipment. Would restocking equipment in a supply depot in any way aid spamming equipment, considering that there's a hard limit per type and changing suits restocks anyway? Because it's quite obnoxious to have no direct restocking at a supply depot, when your fitting is a Commando with a compact nanohive.
With the limit in place, I don't think it would be a problem. We can restock mines from supply depots (and even nanohives) so obviously it's within CCPs ability to restock equipment without directly accessing the depot.
I'm not sure if accessing the depot breaks the "connection" between suits and hives/uplinks for Amarr and Caldari Logis... if it does, players should absolutely be able to restock deployable equipment just by approaching the depot. If not, I don't see it as a huge priority, though it would be nice from a convenience standpoint.
Of course, I don't know how it works on the back end. Restocking from nanohives and restocking from depots might not be two separate things... we wouldn't want a situation where players could use nanohives to restock their nanohives in an infinite loop. |
