#'''Weekly server maintenance''': Go and do something else until maintenance is over. Check the [https://twitter.com/kancolle_staff official twitter] for news as to when server maintenances are held. You may also get a different error message of a girl and tools instead of the standard error cat message if you try logging in during maintenance.

===I heard about a resource cap. What is the limit? Can't I gather resources exceeding my limit?===
 
===I heard about a resource cap. What is the limit? Can't I gather resources exceeding my limit?===
There are two caps for your resources:
+
{{Details|Resources#Resource_Caps|l1=Resource Caps}}
* The natural regeneration of resources (fuel, ammunition, steel and bauxite) limit called "Soft cap". Above the soft cap the natural genration of resources stop. To look for your soft cap, go to your admiral's page and look at the right panel, last row: it is in blue. The formula for calculating it is:
  −
 
  −
<math>\text{Resource Regeneration Limit} = 250 \times ((\text{HQ Level}) + 3)</math>
  −
 
  −
* The absolute cap for resources, called "Hard cap" is 350,000 while the cap for items such as Instant Repairs, Instant Constructions, and Development Materials is 3,000. Once you reach this limit, you will not gain any more resources even if you do expeditions or hit supply nodes in sorties. Note that this is different from the resource regeneration cap.
  −
::Other item in the [[Inventory]] are capped at 99.
