Any suggestions appreciated.

I remember when I first started mining. I was thinking you had to manufacture them.

Anyway you buy them from the resupply button

Restock screen

Yes, the restock button. Is that the same as resupply button?

Doesn't let me buy limpets.

Is it possible that limpets aren't sold at every location?

you have cargo room for them?

I have to go into the resupply screen and scroll to the bottom to get them.

You don't get them from clicking the normal restock button, you need to go to the Resupply menu that lists every weapon you have with their ammo. Then you select there how many limpets you need.

How do you know, since he only referred to a button and not the menu?

I'm clairvoyant ;)

No. Cargo hold is empty. I checked.

When i hit Restock limpet and limpet control are listed. But when i select limpet control there are no arrows allowing me to buy limpets.

I figured it out. I had no cargo rack installed.

Before you call me an idiot, note i did check the right panel and checked cargo and it said empty.
