Missile launchers do not have a max capacity. The missile packs determine the number of missiles.

If your launcher is at 10/10, I do not think it will let you load a new pack into it. Go fire the missiles at something and empty the launcher. You will be able to load your 11 pack.

My missile launcher says Ammo 0/10. I couldnt load the 11 missile pack so I assumed that s the max. Is it not? No max / max determined by missile pack?

Does your missile pack match the launcher? For example, a Mark II Proton missile launcher and Mark II Proton missile pack?

Yeah. Both Concussion II. I believe... oh no, we are in an 8-hour maintenance wait!

Did you try unloading the launcher? Unload the launcher, close and open the management screen. Load the launcher and try to load missiles into it. If it fails, close the management GUI, open it again, and load the missiles.

I have had missiles and CMs sometimes not want to load, but closing and opening the management screen has always fixed it.

sometimes for unknown reasons, people find they cant load missiles into launchers. Simply, close the interface, and reopen and try again. It says 0/10 as the last missile pack you had, had 10 missiles. As said before, they don't have a max capacity, so you can load as many missiles as the packs allow. It may take a few goes to get the pack in the launcher, but it's one of those pesky bugs that this game has.

Oh, and many thanks for the prompt answer. If you say they dont have a limit, I ll take your word on it. Might be that I made a silly mistake (I can never rule that out). Will try in... oh no, six hours. If we re lucky.


Edit for: thanks to both of you, Goraf and Kirkmeister!

The ultimate fix: turn it off, turn it back on. I had the same problem reloading my CM right after loadinga missile pack.


BTW, are we supposed to be able to load missiles from crates sitting in the bank? Now that's service! Not only can I store high explosives in my deposit box, but the bank will deliver said explosives to my ship!

Missiles in your bank safety deposit show up on the management terminal? Do they only show up on the planet where your bank is located, or all planets? Does this work for components too?

Missiles and components in your droid storage compartments show up on the terminal, I use that feature all the time. I never tried the bank before. If that is the case, I'm not going to carry around my spare components any more!

this bug's been around off and on awhile best workaround I know of is unload launcher, put in bank close bank do a quick relog(to char select screen not out of game entirely) get launcher and load back in ship


doing this resets whatever has bugged the launcher and this seems to be alot more common now

I noticed this when I upgraded from Proton IIs. I dumped the crate of IIs in the bank (Dantooine) and flew to Eisley to load up, and there they were in the management screen. I actually didn't try loading them, now that I think about it.
