im not getting supplied by them at all. how long do i have to wait for them do do anything else besides fly with me? this is very frustrating. when i need supply the most then they come to hang around me and do nothing. and i wait and wait cuz i think there might be desync or lag or something, but its pointless.. what the hell.. :/

I suspect it might be something to do within the code of that particular type of ai, that they do not know when they are out of reps and casually fly around until and order auto or manually tell them to orbit a friendly planet.
I have had it too, it is hit and miss that some will repair and some wont, and some will refuel you but not repair or repair but not refuel.
Thats my guess.

I've narrowed it down to be some thing to do with cloak.
If I freshly undock from a planet, they resupply me fine. Soon as I cloaked and called them to me, they won't resupply/rearm me.
Some times firing my torpedoes to lower my ammo count down fixes the issue, some times not.
Apparently people from the other factions are not having this issue. So the finger is pointing towards cloak. Causing an issue to desync you by showing you're all repaired/full on ammo, ahr, jd, etc. to the AI while you are not.

Yes here i second that for ICC: weaopons usaly load after firing a salve somewhere empty space,
but Jumpdrive sometimes takes very long to refill.
A short jump away of the suppy sometimes fixes it, or just time..
Can be very anoying for people who dislike quicklogs.
fyi: you can switch through the ai installments and see how much drones they have left, but they never were empty when i had this fuel problem.

It seems to have more to do with AI counts disabling some of them like with supply plats that don't resupply, or weapon plats that don't fire. I've almost never noticed this issue when MV is mostly deserted but it happens frequently when there are a lot of players on.

One of the devs said somewhere that when the server is under load the first thing it stops processing is AI logic.

Lets not treat the symptoms of this problem, but the cause.
Why the ^&^%$&$^&^%#$#@FFGFVHRrandomwordshere#^#%F#$ are you relying on the AI.....

maybe, sometime, prehaps, just #$&"/&$/##%&/ maybe it really saves time if ai suppy comes to you, gives you ammo and stuff so you dont have to go back to nearest depo. specially if it isnt even in the system or you have to do 2 jumps to get there. really, ai can be useful....if you use it..

Problem is. Not every one has a depot planet one jump away like UGTO does.
More so on K'luth, we infiltrate deeper into enemy territory and thus more reliant on AI as well as supply platforms to resupply us. Supply platforms needing to be maintained daily requires more attention than a depot planet or AI, thus harder to have one around when you need it.

Ive also had problems with suppy ships... I was orbiting a planet with no bombs because of it.... i fired all guns for nothing and even lauched fighters to try to fix it... then a few minutes later, it started working, go figure.

It isn't only AI, I've noticed while flying supply, it sometimes will no longer allow me to provide ammo stores/won't fill to max, though I can still repair.
