Fix this, please? It used to be any number, now its limited to the stated amount.

damn, Traxus must be hungry...

I already complained about base hull! If we're hungry for anything else its hull but I was told that it wasnt possible currently...


But I hit 1b silicon and wanted to set it to buy say 200m more but it wouldn't allow me...will be a pain setting prod bases to buy stuff next uni...

We were allowed to set stuff for amounts higher than 1b before, why is it suddenly changed now?

type'o' forgot a zero.

Huh, Hooch?

The data type limit, they forgot a zero.

Believe it or not, but there is no reason you would ever be able to get 1 billion of any item in the game.

I do believe you, and am assuming it is a design concept flaw.

Whats wrong with mass building dreads or t20 cap lasers? That's a reason to get over 1b commods. Ask anyone with a half decent prod base and they'll tell you that they can get over 1b of each commod pretty quickly even with EE bases in one galaxy.

Without a reason to amass huge amounts of commods (EF style multibuilds) why have huge prods...

I'd rather over provide than under provide for whatever my team has in mind..besides, one day I'm hoping the admins are gonna make having a decent prod base a necessity to build end game stuff, instead of just requiring like 1mil mets to build a piece of primal gear.

Stuff that requires huge numbers of commods, has them as periodic costs.

Yeah, That argument doesn't work when you make 100+fort/lac/dem t20 kits at a time.

any number of decent multibuilds require bils of commods .. Haxy is right it should go up !

100 Dem kits only require 400M initial metals, no? Way below the 2B hull cap.

My argument still stands
