Any chance to get this function on the Void?
I saw it on another server and it worked fine. Very helpfully on big battles, no wasting of time for the whole little thingies like cm's, missles, mines and torps.

Oh sry, i forgot, for ppl like Xenon its funny to buy cm after cm, piece by piece, during his clanmates are fighting in front of the station.

And like the most shell features: U havent to use it, Its optional.

(Its only a little question if someone had thought at this feature.)

I dont know if you've explained exactly what autobuy is.

It automatically purchases ordinance and CM's everytime you die so its a simple matter of dieing then undocking. No trips to the equipment dealer.

It would be good.Isn't it stupid when you spend all ammo and then you still fight and see you don't have any?

While I dont disagree with this, it makes it more thrilling to realise - "OH! C@@p! Ive just run out of (insert ammunition type here)... time to bug out and go shopping!" It makes you think more on a tactical footing to make sure that you respawn where you can actually BUY the correct items and adds that extra thrill of "will they be sitting under the Jump Gate waiting for me to come out" element to any fight....!

But I am all for online shopping - maybe I could get my groceries at the same time :D Just a thought thats all.

*EDIT - or have I misunderstood? is this facility purely for the items at the base - saves time going to the menu bar and you can just UNDOCK straight away? .....

In essence, it would be a great convinience to have an autobuy feature. In reality though it merely takes a few seconds to buy all the ammo you need.

I think what more importantly needs to be addressed is ammo availability. For example, Firestalkers are only purchasable with strong reputations for a particular faction. There needs to be a base nearby the main PVP zones, especially EFZ which sells all types of ammo regardless of the reputation.

Autobuy is a feature of FLHOOK.

It is in the workload ( todo list) for FLAC (the anticheat we use) and were hoping to have something similar soon.

Yep it is feature of FLHook.It is a command.Players can decide if they want to buy ammo manualy or auto.If they decide for auto they just enter autobuy cmd.It is a feature on some servers which use FLHook.Your ammo is automaticly bought when you dock at base or when you respawn.

i think this would be a great feature to VOID and make it more faster ;)

if you don't want to do the "autobuy" you can just turn it off (or please make so :x )
