I stood beside a Supply Depot with only 50 rounds left in my reserve and I received no resupply. I ended up having to access the Depot and reload the same fit in order to replenish my ammo.
This is the first time I have encountered this bug, so I thought I would note it to see if anyone else has encountered it.

I have noticed this occasionally as well, usually accompanied by a sort of whirring noise coming from the depot. I think it may be an intended function, i.e. the supply depot recharging to prevent sitting there and having infinite ammunition.

this. The supply depots need to "recharge" occasionally

Interesting. I had never encountered it before. But now that you mention it, I do recall hearing a buzzing noise in the area. I remember the noise because I was not able to identify were it was coming from at the time.
If it is intended, I have no problem with it, as I was able to access the depot and reload my fit to refresh my ammo.

+1
My recollection is this was implemented to keep people from spamming grenades at the supply depots.

It's not a bug, it's a feature!
Quote:maxNaniteStore - 150.0
naniteRegenerateAmount - 75.0
naniteRegenerateInterval - 20.0
The guys above me are correct. I'm not sure if this was implemented because of the grenade spam or if it had always been there (remember, they had increased the amount of nanites the grenades took suddenly during the beginning Dust days) but Supply Depots act like large Nanohives with a special ability of regenerating nanites (as well as the unique ability to change out your suits).
So the maximum clusters a Supply Depot has is 150 clusters at any given time.
The amount it regenerates is 75.
The time it regenerates this is 20 seconds.
Both Locus and Flux grenades require 24 nanites to replenish according to the SDE, however this may not be the case (tests with a Militia Nanohive and Militia Locus Grenades vs Locus Grenades, Militia Flux Grenades, and Flux Grenades will yield different results). AV grenades are listed at 32 nanites, which might be correct but requires more testing.
In any case, I remember a certain scenario where an enemy tank was entering the Biomass facility. The Supply Depot nearby was useful for resupplying me with AV grenade after AV grenade. However, I quickly drained it after it gave me about 5 to 7 grenades. This would match up since 5 AV grenades at 32 nanites would require 160 nanites and 7 AV grenades at 24 nanites would require 168 nanites.
Also, finally! Something I knew that Fox Gaden didn't.

I missed that debate/announcement, but it does seem to be a good solution to that problem.

Edit: Turns out to be a feature. The nanite supply of the Supply Depot can be exhausted, and takes time to regenerate. This prevents grenade spam and other abuses.
Wow.. and all this time I thought it was a bug

This has happened to me before, usually just walking away from the depot and going back seems to work, but sometimes you have to change your suit.

Seems a little silly when changing suits does the same thing. |
