Maintenance Replenishment Vessel Fail - Where did I go Wrong?
« on: September 29, 2021, 05:05:02 PM »
I was unable to get a ship of the class shown to transfer MSP to a ship that needed them. I removed all active and standing orders from the ailing ship. Every order with the word 'resupply' failed to do anything. It has cargo shuttles, where did I go wrong?  ???

There is a 'Maintenance Module' technology in logistics. Do I need to add that too? The description sounds like it is a Space Station module to replace a ground based Maintenance Facility. That does not sound like the same thing as transferring MSP. ARG!!!
This game is so frustratingly annoying and yet to tantalizing.

In the fleet window, I believe on the ships list, with the fleet selected there is a drop-down menu to control how the fleet automatically pulls supply from any supply ship in its ranks. I think this is set by default to not automatically transfer any MSPs.

You don't transfer MPS to a ship that needs them but you're taking MPS from a supply ship. That is if you have two fleets.
You need to use "Resupply from Stationary Supply Ship".

In the ship design Miscellaneous tab there is a "Minimum Supplies" value that should be set to 0 or a value that is lower than your supplier max capacity.

I believe I tried that option. I'll try again.

Doesn't c# require all ship to ship transfers to also involve cargo shuttles?

Only supply ship needs cargo shuttles, receiving ship does not have to be equipped with shuttles.

The "Resupply from Stationary Supply Ship" command definitely works, I use it regularly. Fistandantillus7, are you sure that you waited long enough to finish the transfer?

I (think I have) discovered the problem, I have a lack of MSP production back at Earth. Oops.

There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and logistics.  :P
