[Question] Torpedo Bombers do not fully restock? Explained

Post by H34Dru5H »

Why do my torpedo bombers with space for 20 torpedos only ever restock to 10 torpedos? Also when a torpedo bomber drops to say 3 or 4 torpedos after a bombing run, should it not restock? It seems they only tend to restock when empty and then only half a load. Is it something to do with that 'low, medium, high' auto resupply setting which has always confused me?

Yes, check the restock setting.
HIGH = 100%, MED = 50% LOW = 10%
Also, it seems that, in the last improvement made, the ships are resupplied only if the torpedoes are less than 5, in the case of HIGH setting, so I assume it is 25%.
Consequently with LOW setting as long as they have 1 torpedo, they will not restock.

Remember however that the supply ship must be constantly supplied with missile parts, so it is good to use a trader who works for it, or have your own resource supply system with traders ready to deliver the goods.

Thank you for that. I have restock set at default medium thinking they would restock when half empty, so it's the other way round, sorted. I will set my bombers at Max :)
