Why can't the Thukker array be used in ALL spaces except high sec (Obvious) and all areas of space without sov. Only sov spaces have a chance at bonused refine and bonused production

Thukker array should be allowed in:
W-Space
Lowsec
NPC Nullsec

The Thukker Component Assembly Array exists because lowsec capital builders cried out that the reprocessing and industry changes in Crius had completely destroyed manufacturing there.

There was a huge dumping of capital and capital component BPO by lowsec industrialists closing-up shop, many were listed at below NPC cost, i.e. the effect was real, and it was of disastrous proportions.

If the array were allowed to be used elsewhere, then other changes would be required to maintain the lowsec benefits.

I don't imagine this happening. It is just too much trouble for no point whatsoever after the required nerfs.

As we mentioned some time ago, we are also going to introduce a new type of Component Assembly Array to help low-security Capital ship builders to compete with the reprocessing changes.

You are absolutely correct....however, the SAME inequalities that were existent in lowsec are ALSO existent in NPC Nullsec and Wormholes, yet they got the big fat FU. All I am trying to advocate is leveling the playing field amongst all entities as compared to SOV nullsec.

So, it seems not all of lowsec is created equal. I was just told there are places in lowsec you can't anchor a Thukker array as well

Hophib, which is you look on dotlan is a 0.1 system, in game it is 0.1, but on eveeye it is a 0.03 (0.0291)

Thukker restrictions are 0.1 to 0.4, which in CCP means 0.05 to 0.45 most likely as that is how they round off numbers

You can't anchor a thukker array in Hophib. Feshur, Egbinger, Naga, Karan, Yekh, Balas, Vestouve, Sakht, Anath, Yiratal


I am sure there are more systems like this, but it just goes to show the restrictions are pointless, in the sense of anything other than high sec, and sov null. I don't think anyone will argue they should be allowed in those 2 places

This is the same type of rounding error that prevented moon miners from being anchored in 0.4 systems for years.
