can you manufacture smaller things like ammo on a ship or can it only be done at a station? |

MFG can only be done in a station or POS (Starbase -- corp assets, a bit of an advanced discussion for a week-old toon) arrays. |

You are.
Some people say 'toon' when they mean character.
This infuriates some other people.
And looking at your publicly available employment history, you're 6 days old.

In lieu of starting another thread, I'll ask my manufacturing Q's here.
I was reading through the guidlines about manufacturing and using BPOs, BPCs and runs. However, I didn't see anything about the limits of BPOs. So that I understand...
Q - If you have a BPO, you can make BPCs and set the number of runs to be "x"? Or does the BPC automatically set to a predetermined number of runs?
Now, I know you can't make a BPC from a BPC and the BPC will just be used up and vanish forever when the allowable runs are depleted.
Q - But what about using a BPO? --- Are there a set numbers of BPCs that can be made? --- Are there a set number of runs, using a BPO? --- Does the BPO vanish for ever after the runs are depleted? --- Should one just make BPC for manufacturing?
Than you in advance for the informative ....and the snide "It's called Google! Herp-Derp!", responses that may follow.

*Disclaimer* I don't know much.
With a BPO you can make as many BPC's as you want. I know there is a limit to the amount of runs that each BPC can have on them though.
BPO are god. they don't run out, or anything like that.
Each one may be able to only create BPC's with a maximum of 10 runs, but you can still make unlimited amounts of those bpc's. |

You tell it how many copies you want, with how many runs you want per copy. You can't put in a job that will take more than 30 days.
There's a cap on how many runs you can have per BPC, which depends on what it is. ammo is 1500, modules are 300, I've not touched the others recently, but I think ships are 15. There's a cap on how many copies you can do at once. I think it's 20.

No limits on a BPO. Just limits on how long a industry job can run for. (30 days, or 1 run, which ever is longer). Long term, BPOs are a better investment than BPCs. But they can take a fair time to pay that back. However, they don't drop in value either (unless there's a module which makes what you're making pointless, for example)

I think most of the questions have been answered. So i will just leave you with these links on manufacturing.

Once again, you kind people are more than helpful. There is a lot to take in at the start and while there are tons of sites and guides that cover this stuff in detail They may or may not provide a clear explanation to a new player's question.
It's like being in a class... many many many years ago, you have a book on the subject but you still have to ask questions. Otherwise, we need no teachers.
I have been over countless sites, guides and videos in the past week and I see no letting up anytime soon. As clear as the information is given elsewhere, there will always be the need for silly questions. No matter how redundant they may be.
Than you all very much for your responses.

Argh my OCD forcing me to post...
toon or more correctly 'toon, as in cartoon.
In EVE character is more common. Avatar is used to refer to the picture of your character.
You will also see main, as in main character, and alt, as in alternate, meaning a secondary character possibly on a separate account. The differences between a main and an alt depend on the account holder's definition.

In EVE character is more common. Ha! I was wondering who else would chime in about that term. It is...less favorable with me as well. I have and will always refer to them as characters. I think 'toon is more sought after with the young folk. I am unfortunate enough to no longer be in that group.

Alt doesn't have to a secondary character, can be character number 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, you get my point.
And to new players, there are people with over 10 accounts, the highest know to me runs 18 accounts atm. Inject your skillbook before you leave the station.

A BPO can be researched to increase it's efficiency, the are 2 types of research that can be done, Productivity Efficiency (PE) & Materials Efficiency (ME). PE research slots are abundant in NPC stations, ME research slots are like rocking horse poo which is where a Player Owned Structure (POS) comes in, bit of an advanced subject for this forum and the interface is a pig. BPOs have no limits on the amount of production runs that can be made from them.
A BPC can't be researched, it inherits its properties from the original and can only be used for X production runs before it goes *poof*. BPCs can be used for production, sold via contracts or used in the invention process to produce BPCs for tech 2 items.
I personally own BPOs for frigates, destroyers, cruisers, small ammo, missiles and all the popular stuff like gyrostabilisers, shield extenders etc, you can make quite a good income just from selling copies if the ME & PE levels are decent, I use the calculator at Tetrr.com to figure mine out.
When it comes to production, be prepared to become extremely intimate with spreadsheets and never assume that any minerals you mine are free, they're not . Homo sapiens non urinat in ventum -á-á-á ---CCP can't patch stupid--- |

Bpcs can have a lot more than 10 or 20 runs btw. The info for each bpo is in its attribributes.
BPOs don't get used up either by being copied or used for manufacturing. BPCs do get used up by manufacturing (and invention) and cannot be copied.
If yu have a bpo sitting there there is no good reason to make bpcs to manufacture from, the point of making bpcs is that it allows you to make a profit from selling them, using them in invention, or using them to build while doing something else with the bpo (ME or PE research). |
