Station Ammo/Missiles

Post by Bellatormonk »

So after figuring out I could stock Stations with missiles offloaded from L-XL ships since Stations always say "No blueprint known", I also just realized that offloading said missiles from a L-XL ship makes the "blueprint known" to the Station. The odd problem is when you tell the Station via Overview to Automatically Restock the missiles, it only lets you restock based on the number of missiles you offloaded.
So even if my Station can fit 1000 missiles, if I only originally loaded 100 Heatseekers..the Station will only re-arm with 100..the option to rearm up to 1000 doesn't work. So I just need to manually load 1000 Heatseekers from a ship to the base to "unlock" my max rearm.

Would this mean multiple trips to Shipyards to restock missiles to your L/XL ship and then back to Station to offload to increase the overall number, or did you figure another way of increasing the number of missiles sttored for Autostock purposes?

In my experience, yes, I have to unload X number of missiles to unlock both the type and number I want to store and for the station to automatically buy. However a post from this thread indicated he offloaded some (like 1/20 of the station capacity) to unlock the missile type and his station eventually bought the max capacity itself. My re-arm slider on the station only goes up to the max # I initially dropped off. Not sure what I am doing wrong or he is doing right.

You have to buy the licence for the missile type you want, once you've done that the stock level becomes enabled so you can update it.

Since 1.5 the Licenses are Available, prior to that they werent. However I'm now trying to work out how to increase the number of missiles stored on the station, as Mine only stores 280 in total.
