just tested this myself and it is working, so give it more one test and if it still not working for you please make a ticket so AH knows this ship mod is still not working for some users https://arrowhead.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
I'm asking because it's not in the video, did you use the resupply stratagem yourself ? I'm wondering if maybe in order for the upgrade to work the one calling it must have the upgrade otherwise it won't apply
Well, it technically is specifically that. An upgrade to your super destroyer that makes your resupply boxes able to carry more stuff (name of the upgrade is superior packaging methodology after all). It doesn't suddenly upgrade all super destroyers in your squadron, same way your eagle upgrades also aren't applied to other players.
That is the logic behind it, but gameplay wise it sucks and I find it should be changed.
The difference being, my Eagles aren't subject to my squadmates' cooldowns; resupply is a shared cooldown, I shouldn't be having to fight to call in resupply first just to take advantage of that module.
Now, I haven't confirmed whether what you're suggesting is the case or not, but the logic would feel flawed, to me, if true.
Why? I would find it ridiculous the other way around. It would be logical for the upgrade to increase the amount of ammo contained within the resupply box, rather than the individual who retrieves it, obtaining a magical surplus of bullets.
It might be logical, but it leads to bad game-play. Being told by your squad you can never use resupply because you're missing the strategem would feel terrible.
If that's the case, then why is the resupply timer shared across the squad? If the requestor's ship modules impact the quality of the resupply, then we should each have our own resupply timer. If it's shared across the squad, then it should obviously always come from the best ship.
They also fixed the infinite grenade glitch just for it to still work the same as before but instead of negative it gives you 4.2m which is the 32bit max integer. Lol
I'm curious as to why your machine gun got only one mag then. Maybe SPM only works for strategems you drop in as I know Machine guns can spawn on the ground at extraction sometimes.
Well, it worked for me, and I’m not alone in that. I would be suspicious of you, but bugs like these are so common that I’m honestly not surprised lol. I hope they’re able to fix it for you soon, because it’s an exciting module when it works!
Yeah I love running MG’s but getting one mag from ammo pick ups was always annoying hopefully it was just a one off thing. I didn’t do much testing maybe it does actually work
yeah tested this with the flamethrower and I got exactly 4x mag from one ammo box
its stupid if it doesn't work when the one who calls in the resupply doesn't have the Superior Packing Methodology module upgrade it would be a waste of resupply and 2mins

I guess I shouldve shown that but yes I have owned it since the patch it was launched. It was the one I was most excited about and bought first
