guys, sorry for this but I feel the need to post this finally (if similiar posted before I did not see it).

The vendor limit is set to 100 items at a time. So now please tell me the reason for this, considering we need 80k communication arrays for a starbase upgrade, right now!!!

This is no fun buying 100 at a time and totally the reason for my bad mood right now xD

Please fix this asap, cause I would have just bought the 80k arrays in one go!!

    What about when you need 200 Doffs for a project.
    1. You go to your starbase doff vendor.
    2. Select the listing for the common doff you need.
    3. Click on the doff
    4. Confirm you want to buy the Doff.
    5. Do this 200 times
    6. open your inventory
    7. click on the boxes with the doffs in them. Do this 200 times
    8. open your starbase project and click on contribute.
    9. now you have to click a check box on each doff individualy. Do this 200 times.
    FUN TIMES!!!!

    Cryptic really needs a "Select All" feature. Or just a slider bar to set the abount of Doffs, items you want to buy or contribute.

    To be fair, you can skip step 4 if you hold CTRL and double-click the DOFF in step 3 but the rest is suckage on a grand scale, as your post suggests.

    These limits are ridicilus i maybe bought 100k doffs for projects even more anything else yes doff boxes are holding down control you do like 400+ clicks to get 400 doffs fist buy 400 clicks then open boxes 400 clicks then contribute 400 cliks for what it is.

    Even im happy commodities bigger limit like 1k and up so you drag as mutch are you like if you have enought ec or inventory space or even fc.

    This ranks somewhere near the top of the UI problems list with STO.

    You do know that doesn't really save you anything other than not seeing the confirmation message. You still have to click twice to get past Step 4. Positioning the panels so the OK buttons line up was the quickest way I found to get through it.

    It's silly, but this is what I do too. :rolleyes:

    Well I think that shows more of a problem with just how crazy the cost requirements are for making a fleet more so than it does the ui issues.

    However, I do agree with you about the vendor problems, the bloke who talked about buying officers is a problem for me. I try to buy some to post to my fleet occasionally and it is a pain.
