With all the patches and fantastical plans for expansions and mega-changes Eve has one of the dumbest things still operating to make a capsuleer's life a confusing misery.

Take a look at this Blueprint Copy https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/97960240/ExeFile%202014-05-20%2015-17-20-95.jpg

You can cleary read "Max Runs Per Blueprint Copy 15.

NOPE!

When I tried to make 2 runs the lab refused saying, "You can only make 1 run per copy".

So have I paid over-the-odds for a single run BPC masquerading as a 15 run BPC because CCP haven't bothered to change the meaningful info in the description of certain items???

I don't think there is anything more stupid in this nice game of Eve and CCP really should add a patch NOW to tell people the useful info not bloody useless info about the max runs which it COULD achieve but HASN'T!

What a crock!

It's not masquerading, when its linked via click and drag it shows the basic max run bluprint copy (15 runs).

When its right clicked and showed info on from you hold or where ever it shows the actual bpc.

The BPC you bought will also say "Blueprint Copy" and "1 run" on it.

Quoted from Doc Fury: "Concerned citizens: Doc seldom plays EVE on the weekends during spring and summer, so you will always be on your own for a couple days a week. Doc spends that time collecting kittens for the on-going sacrifices, engaging in reckless outdoor activities, and speaking in the 3rd person."

Here's two screenshots to show:

This one is linked from my inventory in the current station I am at.

This one is the same blueprint dragged into chat and then clicked on to show the info.

Same blueprint linked in different ways. Always make sure you see "Blueprint Copy" and "Licensed Production Runs Remaining". Hope this helps.

Edit: Crap that was supposed to be an edit on my original post... oh well.

Never look at the "max run amount", it is only important when making copies. Only look at the "Licensed Runs".

Nope.

You paid it because you didn't pay attention.

When you're done building your Oracles, I have some faction mods for it I would love to sell you at a deep discount.

Though it is a clever scam, I will admit that.

Rule #1. If it sounds too good to be true, it is.
Rule #2. If it looks exactly right, look again.
Rule #3. If it still looks exactly right, make sure you remember all the game mechanics.

The only silly thing with production I encounters is that 10 runs of Scorch L take 14 days to complete.

Ok. Yes, if you do the "correct" click it will show the exact information of that BPC, but if you do the "wrong" click CCP will show some USELESS inaccurate and irrelevant information to this BPC which is referring to what a, I repeat a, BPC can achieve which is a max run of 15.

It IS stupid and the people who can't see that this is confusing to anybody are probably the people advising CCP that this is ok.

Why bother trying to make the game clearer for new players as CCP have done, when they leave in confusing misinformations on BPCs that make the game dopey!??

You mean the misinformation that is directly below or above the information you are looking for in the info?

You are so right
