Powerplay The frustration of fortification runs.....

So it's now 2.3 and still, if I want to fill my cargo bay up to the brim with fortification units, I have to repeatedly stab myself in the eye with the torture that is filling the cargo bay. I mean really frontier, by now there should be a button to just fill the whole cargo bay up and pay the relevant costs with a dialog confirmation box.

Lets face it, no player with a small ship is going to do fortification runs as it's generally faster to undermine in wings to gain merits.

I want to have fun when playing this game, not want to scratch out my eyeballs trying to fill my cargo bay.

"Get lvl 5 then" you might say. Still have to scratch my eyeballs to fill the damn thing up 50 units at a time.


At least have 2 separate options, the standard way and the option to fill the cargo bay up how much you want and pay the relevant costs. It would greatly ease the torture of it all.....}


edit: so right now I have 592 tons of cargo on my cutter ( I have limpets and fuel transfer modules + fuel scoop ). At lvl 1, I have to do this 59 times to reach 590 tons. 59 times.... I mean really frontier.......

Certainly have never understood this one. Other elements of grind or odd design people want to defend, I guess that's their decision but simply wanting to fill your cargo hold and be on your way and have to fight the UI for the millionth time instead.
 
I think the general idea behind it was 10000 cr/t was very expensive and no-one in their right mind would pay this, so only getting 10 at a time isn't a big issue.

The economy of the game has changed so much since PP started, 7 million per cutter load is more the rule than the exception now.

The number of free packages should also be altered to just give you X free per week, not X free per 30 mins.

Yep, agree with all of the above. The X free should be based upon Rating; higher Rating = more free.
