you are trying to manufacture more than your skills will allow…

You could look in the 2 skills called “ **Mass Production** ” and “ **Advanced Mass Production** ” - both are found in the Production section of the skills menu. Each level you train gives you 1 additional manufacturing(synthing) slot.

You start with 1 manufacturing slot, and therefore the max is 11 slots if both skills are trained to level 5. I hope the info helps.

(Note: The advanced skill requires Mass Production to be trained to level 5 before you can use it. Also check what limits for skill levels are shown if you are an Alpha/free account.)

Also another tip: Check if there are other items that have completed and waiting for you to click “Deliver” to free up their manufacturing slots. In Eve things don’t auto-deliver - you have to click on the button.
