Re: SEV - Design problems with Weapon Platforms
No, you don't need either supplies or ordnance on a weapons platform. It uses the planet's supplies and ordnance. I'm not sure if a WP would even get its supply or ordnance storage filled if it had any. You can test this and find out, I guess.
There are some problems with supplies/ordnance and ships, yes. You cannot LEAVE supplies or ordnance on a planet from a ship because of the automatic refill when leaving the sector. We have been trying to get this changed. Maybe the patch available soon after the game hits the shelves will have a new solution to this.
The best thing to do in the interim, if WPs do in fact get their supply and ordnanc capacity filled, might be to add an intrinsic supply storage amount to WP hulls.
