I'm not sure if this is intentional, but when you manually pull artifacts and you receive a flux probe and get 2 uses.

I just pulled the artifacts using the claim all function, I was informed that I had pulled 4 of the probes (meaning 8 if I had pulled them manually) but I only got 4 in my cargo.

The number indicated beside each named artifact when you claim all is the number of USES. If you add up all the x1, x2, etc, it normally won't come out to be the same as the number of artifacts claimed at the top. Probes and cloning pods have multiple Uses for each claimed artifact.

Hope you follow that, I'm a little tired and don't have time (or AP) to bother with doing a screen shot to clarify further...

when you pull on the mass puller it tells you the number of uses total, not the actual number of artifacts you pulled as if you hit it manually.

That is to say, if you use the mass-claim function, and pull one flux probe, since it has two uses, it will say you pulled two USES. Again, mass pull gives you the number of uses, of the artifact, nut the number of times you pulled that artifact.

So since Flux probes have two uses, you pulled two flux probes, each with two uses, for a total of four uses. Period.

Thanks for playing! =)
