How does this new feature the "all" button effect your chances of getting the Mass Storage Pods?

It basically works the same way. It pulls them one at a time, judging each AP total at a time.

So, no effect. Except that if you WANT MSPs you should keep your AP above 20k, which it wont do.

assuming Dan used something similar to a while loop, lowering the current AP after each loop, and tallied up the results.... it doesn't change the chances... only each repetition of the loop done at over 20K would have a 1/60 chance of getting a MSP... any repetition of the loop done below 20K would have 0 chance of getting an MSP


if you're going after MSP's... do not use the checkbox... manually pull your artifacts yourself so you can stop after it drops below 20K... that way you don't waste so many AP on repetitions of the loop that won't give you MSP's

same goes for if you're wanting rescued prisoners (4K) or shipbots (3K)... or any other specific artifact
