Stupid Invention Question

So, I've got my Hulk invention materials at hand and skills trained:


  • Max-run Covetor BPCs (in my hangar)
  • Incognito Ship Data Interface (in my hangar)
  • Datacores - Gallentean Starship Engineering (in my hangar)
  • Datacores - Mechanical Engineering (in my hangar)
  • Engagement Plan decryptors (in my hangar)
  • Gallente Encryption Methods 5
  • Gallentean Starship Engineering 5
  • Mechanical Engineering 4


I right click on a Covetor BPC, select Invention. I pick my installation and slot then click 'Use assembly line'. Input and Output are set to "My hangar". I leave base item blank. Then I try to add a decryptor and it all falls apart. It won't let me add the decryptor, and it just says 'No decryptors found'. The decryptors are sitting right there in my hangar, along with everything else.

I've googled 'Hulk Invention Eve Online' and read through the guides, and none of the guides seem to indicate what I'm missing.

What am I doing wrong?

Try not leaving the Base Item Blank.

Other than that, file a petition.

Sometimes the interface can be a little wonky. Put the stuff into your ship, undock, and then dock back up and try again.

This, caching causes some problems so either put the materials there and wait like 10 minutes or just undock and dock again. Leaving the base item isnt an issue, I dont think ive used a base item ever and never had a problem because of it.

    Its will not matter the make run on the BPO when it comes to SHIPS, you will only get the run added from the decrytors. Also if u get a POS for the invention time will be cut in 1/2!!!!

    Hope everything works, just make sure you are using a gallente decrytors

    Are you using an NPC station for the invention? Is it safe to assume that your invention materials are in your hanger in the same station that you are attempting to use for the invention? Also make sure you've cleared your cache.
