Giving out roles to online and offline pos equipment is Terrible. Gas reaction production is equally terrible.

Could we just get one module to do our gas reactions in (heck we have blueprints, why can't we just make them like we make everything else, using the new ui manufacturing display).

Right now if I want to go into production for those new t3 destroyers, I need to create what is essentially a gas pos just to make the components. I honestly don't want to do that, nor do I want to deal with the pos itself.

So could we just get a new array. Call it sleeper gas compiling array. We can dump our gas, click a button, bam. Get gas stuff.

Yaay!!!!

If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen.

If you can't find people you trust to have the roles to run things without your constant assistance, do it yourself.
Or set up an alt corp so people can run the tower reactions without interference.

If you can't be bothered to adapt, I don't see why they should remove a hassle which serves as an entry bar of effort to t3 production. I know I made t2, t3, and boosters, and that the time and willingness to deal with the POS aspects of the business is what keeps it from being flooded by every two bit tom and bob with a pos who wants to anchor one lab and one "Sleeper Gas Reactor" module and dive into t3 Prod.

TLDR: The hassle keeps the competition down and the effort profitable. It would be bad for you as a producer to rock the boat.

The difference here is that I've run gas reactions for a year. You can set the modules to a basic roles locked in a passworded pos and run them. Roles is a minor issue that can be worked around.

The modules, setup and maintenance is completely rediculous and overly complicated for what it is suppose to be.

You also tend to lockout people from trying it because of how the setup is currently.

If it was in a acceptable place, accessable and not locked behind a firewall of pos management bs, then htfu would be an appropriate answer. They ain't.

Salute

Yaay!!!!

Yes it adds a level of understanding and player knowledge rather than just isk and SP just because its a little to hard for you doesn't mean it's "ridiculous and overly complicated" not every thing just needs to be click click done

This^^

It's just like invention, you need to know what racial Decrypter to use to achieve the best chance for invention for what you are inventing along with the correct datacores and racial data interface.


Oh wait they removed most of that due to it being unnecessarily complex.What?

If you don't follow the rules, neither will I.
