Let alone if you sells x amount of artifacts you get a restock. It's not enough to trigger another restock....
Since mining can provide too.
Basically.. some days artsci is boring, other times you have too much artifacts when rad storms hit the station.
If anything that needs to be buffed... for each 100% correct artifact you trigger the restock faster. And restocks will happen REGARDLESS over a certain period of time.
Of course the artifacts that Vuldarak sells are not always there, I'm well aware of that. Also, I understand the concept of restocks. I just think that increasing the value of the artifacts would just make sense in general- I used the Vuldarak example to show how ridiculously low the prices could get and to show why QMs may not value working with artsci in its current state. I'd prefer if artsci could work as a supplement to a cargo budget like mining currently is in the absence of a mining team since in my time on 4, there've been many shifts without any sort of mining team where I just have to pray for good requisition RNG as the QM.
I agree with the restock points you made though, and would like to see some more regular form of restocking for the artsci folks(maybe mail crates could come with some artifacts inside?), regardless of whether their value is increased or not. Also, having some way to see the restocking progress would be good for the QM, to let science know how many more artifacts they'd have to export to get new ones.
