I'm becoming fairly conversant on the static data dump, the field storing (or hard-code I need to write) that indicates the batch size for ammo and bombs is eluding me.
I have my modules & ships just fine (each run produces 1 item), but can't seem to find the field that stores the quantity produced for ammo and bombs (it's 100, and 20, respectively).
Is there a field in the static data dump? Do I just need to write a case statement on the group id, and be done with it?
Thanks in advance.

Edited by: Tonto Auri on 24/08/2010 06:20:39 There's a field.
Moreover, it has exactly the name you're looking for. -- Thanks CCP for cu |

Every time you try to be better than someone else, you looks stupid. It's actually not hard to find relevant info, knowing it IS there, and it give you necessary practice in reading and understanding information relevant to your ongoing efforts. Which means, you then get less trouble finding similarly relevant information. I realized my first answer was unclear to the point of absence of any meaning, then I've edited it to give clearer insight. Your answer was really useles and provided no benefits to the OP. -- Thanks CCP for cu |

Pot calling the kettle black?

No, it gave them exactly the answer they were looking for.
I may agree with your principle for more difficult subjects, but for something so simple was there really a percentage in being cryptic and obtuse? Is it really so hard to point them to a single field in invTypes that if you don't know better, can seem to have no relation what's in the blueprint table?
Ask the OP which post he found more useful.

More difficult (read - non-obvious) subjects deserve careful explanation. -- Thanks CCP for cu |

Excellent answer, that's exactly what I was looking for.
As for whether I *should* have found it myself, why would the bp yield quantity be in invTypes supertype, when it clearly belongs in invBlueprintTypes, the 1-1 subtype table for bp attributes? Unless I'm overlooking some innate attribute of items as always naturally grouping into their 'batch size' (ammo does not, it can exist in odd lots) why would it have been in invTypes?

The portionSize does not only give you the number of items per manufacturing output, it is also the batch size of items you need for reprocessing. Many items do not have a blueprint, however they can be reprocessed.
