Newcomer / Intro Auto field maintenance unit: how to / beginners guide for explorers?

Yes, yes, but what I'm trying to say that they choose this approach because gathering mats and crafting the ammo/integrity/whatever is much more involved process for player than just buying a thing that can store more of this or that.
That's why I said that however it may sound like a cool idea to haul, for example an extra FSD with you, it isn't as cool when you think of the gameplay around it.
I agree would be better from player perspective, HOWEVER having limited ammo (vs lasers) is something that is done by intention. It places boundaries around 'fight mode' and ensures a battle ends one way or another. I think if you could Haul ammo, but not 'auto load it' meaning you'd have to be at port or carrier to move from storage to gun magazines, then it would be a good compromise. You already can double the amount in magazines through engineering - and then use synthesis to double amount again... so really running out of ammo is a rare thing - even in 30 min Hydra battles.
