What's the best rentable trade ship for gold and Slam?

#

For drugs you probably wouldn’t have enough aUEC to fill a C2. So I would get a cutlass black for drugs. You wont make much doing legal cargo with anything under a C2

#

My opinion of course

Go to the cargo deck

andromeda probably has the best cargo space on the rentals, or 600i

How cool would it be if they implemented something like x4 where there are npc commodity runners that you could intercept and destroy, causing the place the npc was going to have an under stock of the commodity it was running if you do it enough

#

So what's the best place to sell cargo from illegal missions, like eggs and drugs and such?

#

Or places

jolly meadow
obtuse sierra
#

is there a reason not all of my cargo would show up to sell at once?

#

also taking a while to process orders

rough ingot
#

Now do the actual flat numbers and not just percentages

warm spear
#

Are ships still randomly exploding while entering or leaving or just sitting in hangars? I lost several cargo loads that way yesterday

jolly meadow
#

sure it earns about half the profit of beryl but for a tiny fraction of the investment which makes it far less risky with all the server instability

#

anyone have any tips for dealing with the atc bugging out? i keep trying to land and store my ship, but it says im blocking an active bay and only lets me claim it. it doesnt start the auto-storage with blocking a bay either

just exited to menu, joined a different region, and the ship was stored

Yo so me and my friend were running narcotics to breakers yard in daymar and we kept getting blown up by this AI ship im guessing how do you deal with it or is there another good spot that doesn’t have that ship?

#

How much does cargo/trading actually make usually? kinda curious how it compares to salvaging

delicate girder
#

So I accidentally bought some waste, so I went to trade tools and it says I can sell it at PO, but I go there and it says cannot sell.

#

Could it be illegal waste? If so, how do I know if it's illegal?

crimson oak
#

try major cities TDD

#

a lot of those trade sites can be outdated on price/locations

edgy elk
#

doing drug with a cutlass can bring 100k in 15min but its not all the time

#

legal trading can bring same same over bigger distances with a c2

nocturne blaze
# edgy elk depend on the cargo size

i was thinking of getting the max or the taurus if its profitable. Mining and salvaging isnt very fun sometimes, where as flying and landing seems chill and enjoyable.

#

Less tedious than getting in and out of chairs like with the salvaging, i just dont know if its easy to find things to haul to make money? never tried it

pastel radish
#

what is the "Party favors" cargo that is at CRU L1 buyable for 1.2k/unit ?

#

and is it worth to buy and sell it at a TDD ?

edgy elk
#

otherwise i would go drug run with that ship

#

coz you need a lot of space (C2) to make real money with trading

#

also with trading you need to put your money on the line

#

on a full C2 of beryl its 1.5m

#

I turned to cargo specifically because of how buggy ROC mining has been. between certain rocks having their charge bugged out or extraction mode not working...

I've been trading stolen goods but I haven't really been turning a profit. I don't know what routes to take or how to make it more efficient. I know the basics of trading (buying from "no questions asked," selling, etc) but I don't know how to do it effectively. It anybody could help me out or give me some pointers, that'd be great.

zenith maple
# kind trout 30k trading best xD

30k protection should be working now, just make sure to wait before logging in, and also dont claim the ship. it should go back to home and you need to retrieve it there.

vestal ravine
# gentle flint I've been trading stolen goods but I haven't really been turning a profit. I don...

I haven't been able to play the last 2 weeks so am not familiar with the salvage contracts in person. However I have pretty good experience with straight up Vice trading. Just send me a DM and we can talk about that more and when I get back into the game next week will try these salvage missions. It sounds like certain ships in the mission can have high value crates for sale which is great because trading requires a big upfront investment for the C2 I use.

been using the cat for runs, having a fantastic time

#

would love to be able to do laranite, but the restock is so slow if anyone else is running it that i can almost never maximize profits

#

been running beryl on hurston, very consistent and easy to do

Anyone know how to fix the cargo not showing up in TDD terminals bug??

Beryl to Huston. Bought 696 was only able to sell 202 but there’s still 400 in my c2. Shows In TDD it’s 0/696.

Tried relogging and restoring. Tried to go to a18. No luck.

i honestly really enjoy flying the cat, just takes a little practice, not sure why people dislike it so much

mossy palm
#

Because Drake goes all-in when designing ships for specific purposes. For Catterpillar, purpose is to be a long rnage hauler, both cargo and vehicle, that's why it is sich longboi, and brick to handle, especially in atmo.

#

And as far as I understand, cargo weight still doesn't fit into flight system. Yet.

Yeas, as much as it is risky, both CS and pirate/griefer wise, drugs are only good cargo if you got small ship.

While you can make profit with smaller ships, it wont be in any appreciable amounts money wise after refueling and repairs, and you cant always count on RNGesus to be merciful when looting crates at trading outposts.

I kind of wish they'd have large/small pads with items that can only be loaded/unloaded if you're actually landed at a pad. You could end up with smaller ships moving items from small outposts to larger outposts/stations and big ships moving between larger outposts/stations. Right now it's kind of goofy and no real reason to trade in a small/med ship

brittle orchid
#

yea that's true

#

it would also make sense for them to add a loading time for cargo, obvs slower at small posts or for large ships, but i kinda hope they don't do that

#

Sorry...darn bad situation.

proud pumice
#

@brittle orchid damn. I know that feeling. I've blown up my cargo more than once because the damned speed limiter decides to turn on by itself even when my hand is nowhere near the key. Some idiot decided to make it so it can't be permanently disabled and turns back on automatically each time you sit in the seat

strong sable
#

Check your settings if it's always on when you get in the pilot seat

proud pumice
#

No. Cruise you can just not set a button for and I've never had an issue.

I'm talking the speed limiter. I had to set a button on my hotas specifically for limiter because the damned thing turns back on everytime i enter/exit the seat. And it's turned on and smashed me into stuff numerous times.

strong sable
#

Wdym by that

#

Turns on

#

Are you talking about going from 0m/s to full speed?

proud pumice
#

You can turn it on or off. Mine has a tendency to actually engage the engines. This generally happens at a VERY bad time. This happens even though I have it set to a toggle switch that i can't hit without taking my hand off the throttle, specifically so it can't be hit accidentally

strong sable
#

So cruise control

proud pumice
#

If i could completely disable it permanently id have saved myself multiple destroyed ships

strong sable
#

The C key?

#

That you hit to go forward without having to hold W?

proud pumice
#

Not entirely sure. Limiter is the only one I have set to the hotas at all. Cruise isn't mapped at all.

Not saying i can't be wrong, I'm not at my PC to double check. But if it's ON i can't speed up past that point. But it will activate itself at full blast

#

I can turn it to on and not move even if i max icon to the top of the throttle.

strong sable
#

Ok, so the square around your speed indicator is the limiter, if it's full it's limited, if it's only the corners, it's not. If you get a line and an arrow pointing at the line, that's the cruise control that will keep you going forward at full speed if limiter is off, or at the limiter if it's on

proud pumice
#

Ok, it's definitely the limiter icon then

#

Bc i know if it's off and not going to randomly kill me when it's a broken square lol

strong sable
#

If you made your own control mappings, it's highly likely you double bound keys

proud pumice
#

I very well could have, but i swear that i purposely went in and blanked out both cruise and limiter. I specifically remember having to go back and remap limiter because it automatically turns on when sitting in the pilot seat and had to be turned off each time i want to fly

strong sable
#

Might also have to take a look in the general settings

#

There's an option to set/change almost all things in the cockpit when you sit in the pilot seat

#

Like start with gsafe on or off, coupled or decoupled and all that

proud pumice
#

I'll go through when i can and see if i can find a solution for it. Ty for the advice

Assuming that 30k protection is working for cargo protection, do you absolutely have to be in your ship when the 30k hits? What if you have a ship full of cargo and the 30k catches you while you're still running around the outpost? Anyone had that happen and recovered their cargo anyway?

# shadow tide for a single seater minimizing size and maximize cargo, does anything beat the n...

Nomad will always remain a favourite of mine, but the Cutlass is great for that little bit extra in cargo and it zips around quickly too. For cargo it's a good step up but for combat I just couldn't get on with it due to the engine vulnerability. You're essentially doubling the cargo space going to a Cutty Black too so it's more profit. I upgraded mine to the Taurus which gives you nearly quadruple the cargo but yesterday gave in and went all the way to a C2 for my main cargo ship. The CCU chains available made sense to me

stable dust
# dreamy bridge Anyone know any good trade routes? Helium is dead and Beryl is too risky for it'...

What cargo space do you have available? Beryl has been a great money maker for me. I've tried the Laranite and Gold routes but the stock is too scarce and I don't have the patience to wait, it's better to be moving and earning instead of chancing stock availability. Drug running works well but still the issue of stock availability and that added risk of piracy, but that's what made me my first chunks of money, the Nuen Waste - Brios run on Daymar is quick and simple plus you can always fall back to Grim Hex as the sell point if you spot potential pirates at Brios.

dreamy bridge
#

I have a rented C2, so that's 696scu

#

Current balance is ~3,000,000, a little more

stable dust
#

Plus with 30K protection back if anything happens the ship and cargo should in theory be stored back at your home planet.

#

I just think you need to be really patient or lucky to bag Laranite or Gold and other expensive commodities, Beryl is plentiful and restocks loads per minute.

dreamy bridge
#

The thing that scares me is glitchy landings. With the Helium trade, I wouldn't lose more than 70k if it happened, but with Beryl, that's half of my auec gone in a flash, not even my fault.

#

I need to make 2m within the next 2 hours

#

*4

#

4 hours

stable dust
#

Try that Beryl run, you're landing on a proper pad to buy and a proper port to sell so should be safe. I bought at Ita - Woodruff/Ryder and sold at Lorville, quick and easy

#

You should be able to do 1M per hour easily, only issue may be the demand at Lorville but it changes quickly so you may have to wait to sell a full C2 worth

dreamy bridge
#

Yeah but why does Lorville have to have such small ass pads tho?

#

Like it's hair raising trying to squeeze a C2 in there

Yes

I read a few things about 30k protection with ships being sent back for your main residence if it happens but I lost 200k today on my second ever run. Did I maybe do something wrong? The ship was at my main hanger but empty

If anyone could share some trade routes that are fun that would be super appreciated. I was really hyped to get into this now I'm scared lol

you went back to your main city, retrieved, and it was empty?

you never hit claim for that ship on any terminals

#

I crashed in a18 ship was sent back to new babbage. I went back there. Went to tdd and checked if it registered my ship. It was already waiting for me there but cargo hold was empty

#

Did I maybe need to pull it out of cargo and put it back in?

#

Still haven't claimed it. Went to bed in defeat lol

rough ingot
#

yes do exactly that, but go another step beyond and take it out, fly it around, qt away and back

#

then try again, if the boxes are physically inside the cargo area the terminal should recognize them after

#

ive dealt with the same thing

gloomy moon
# rough ingot ive dealt with the same thing

Ok so there is a chance I still have them. So drag my self back to babbage, take it out and check if it has cargo. If I see nothing do I move on or could the cargo be invisible until I fly about a bit?

#

Thank you btw, this hope feels lovely lol

rough ingot
#

99% odds the cargo will be in the hold when you open it and check

#

if not tho yeah its doomed

#

has the rental expired

it could tomorrow tho

But it could be an issue. Rentals don't magically disappear when time ends while you're flying it but it stops appearing on trading terminals

rough ingot
#

she said the ship is showing on the terminal its just the hold is empty

#

so its not recognizing it

#

or its actually deleted but unlikely

gloomy moon
#

I should have rental for another 14h and I can make the time when I wake up

rough ingot
#

ok

#

if you let it expire all the stuff is gone with it

I'll keep my fingers crossed and travel across the galaxy back to babbage to check tomorrow. I got hope lol

#

straight to the point

#

think they're going to have to rework station trade since all the good trade routes are interplanetary, and that thing looks like it could only do interstationary trade

raw helm
#

I have been thinking we have these Cargo stations and we have an entire world of space faring people... why would they limit main trade to planet side?

#

It makes sense in the future that people at space stations would be conducting the bulk of the trade, and only ship to the planet what they want to buy down their for their own consumption.

obtuse sierra
#

i mean it makes sense for there to be all the shipping from these production settlments to hub cities, but i think what's needed is more long distance, limited location supplies. like if arc corp didnt produce agriculture supplies but orison did, and arc corp needed it brought from there. like a revamp of the commodities price list

also pretend example. i don't think orison does much farming..

#

mining update was a step in the right direction so that stuff other than just laranite is worth trading

It would be nice if you could sell anywhere, but the prices would vary. Then traders could seek out best profits and casual players can just sell

# proper furnace Thanks <@718408574350393385>, raked in ~1,500,000 aUEC tonight with this run. O...

Someone posted in here saying he’s trading Beryl round Hurston so I used SC Trade Tools and that’s what it suggested. First 5 runs were great and then I lost around 1.6M due to bugged cargo during ILW, seems to work fine now and I’ve bought a C2 to do this run for future releases, the Laranite and Gold runs are better but I haven’t got the patience to wait for stock, this is a solid earner.

You will need to rely a lot on your backfill items so that if say Laranite gives 20 to 40 scu then you top off with Titanium any amount you want. Do not backfill with low profit items. There are like 5 or 6 backfill trade goods.

Hi guys, i'm new to cargo trading and I have a (beginner) question about it. Can I ask it here or is there a better place ?

lavish night
#

Thanks ! Here I go :
I tried to get into the crago trading by myself. The UEX website told me to buy "souvenirs" at point A and sold it at New Babbage MTPS for a 25k profit.
When I arrived at NB MTPS, I wasn't able to sell the cargo because there was "no demand".

  • Is it possible to know the current demand before buying the cargo ? If yes, how ?
  • How do I know when the demand will be back ? (therefore, when will I be able to sell my cargo)
  • How does the "demand" thing is working ? Who is creating the demand ? (am this question clear ?)
#

That's 3 questions actually 😄

#

To add more informations : I came back once every 30min to the admin console for 3 or 4h : still "no demand" 😦

@lavish night @visual berry I'm new to trading in SC as well, I have three websites bookmarked: SC Trade Tools, Galactic Logistics and UEXCorp. All of them seem to be out of date, I used all three websites to put together trade routes and less than half of the information was accurate making my route no bueno. I plan to start paying more attention to the Commodity Price Alerts, looks like that system could use some serious refinement. It seems odd to me that we can't look up stock/prices from locations without actually traveling there. So far the best resource I've found is asking here, "what's the best trade right now?" I ran a few loads of Beryl from the moon Ita to Lorville on Hurston last night and made some decent bank but it was very risky, 1.6M to buy for C2. One lost load and I would have been set back 6-7 loads. I managed to successfully run 6 loads, I think I'll quit while I'm ahead.

lavish night
#

Sorry, I am REALLY new to it 😄

#

btw I am using a MSR for cargo

proper furnace
# lavish night It looks like we learned the same way. Except that I didn't knew about CPA. What...

Risky because it's SC and shit happens. I'm not all that worried about players, I haven't seen much pirating this patch and NPCs are easy enough to avoid. 30K is scary, randomly dying or ship exploding is what keeps me up at night. Prices do change as demand changes however it's such a minor adjustment that you can run the same route for a week without too much worry price-wise. Good choice on the MSR, awesome ship. I got player pirated with 400K of refined quantanium in my Freelancer MAX a couple years ago, I decided to join the pirates for ~6 months to learn their ways. Whenever they would interdict an MSR they'd say, "let him go, he's probably going to outrun us before we can disable him".. I immediately bought an MSR for myself. I'm only using the C2 for volume, if I get player interdicted there's probably only one outcome and it's going to come down to negotiations.

vestal ravine
# lavish night It looks like we learned the same way. Except that I didn't knew about CPA. What...

I can chime in a bit more if okay with you. For one thing I missed the last 2 weeks of play but understand there were issues with 30K protection and that has been one saving grace with trading after you buy the goods but cannot sell them for various reasons. So I hope today's patch can clear that up. The other more normal risk is getting jumped by pirates even though that also is a bit rare. But you should always take certain precautions to make it harder on the pirates if they target you. The CPA's are mainly focused on Medical Supplies. Generally you buy at the Overstocked sites and fly around for the alert on a Understocked site to sell. Most traders don't mess with that. Speaking of trade missions Frontier Consolidated O/R/G had one internally that may be a model for ones offered by CIG. I did them twice about 8 months ago. It was trade items to build like 100 mining heads. So there is a parts list of about 10 items you have to get for a 150K payout. As you sell each set of items you take a screenshot of the sell. You still have to use your own money and thus earn off each sale. But I am not sure they still do this.

subtle cradle
# proper furnace Risky because it's SC and shit happens. I'm not all that worried about players,...

I think piracy is less frequent since either asops aren't working or because it just feels wrong to rob people trying to make money in this brutally buggy patch.

MSR would be the dream ship for me to catch solo in my mantis. It holds alot of SCU, is slower than the mantis and Mantis could pretty easily solo it 1vs1.

Pirates don't negotiate much after physicalizes cargo got added. It's simply safer to soft death the ship, kill the pilot and steal the boxes.
That way the victim has less time to self destruct

rough ingot

what? you are always risking a loss doing cargo

I mean if I buy/sell if I risk buying for more than I'd be selling for

Or if there's any specific commodity that is always guaranteed to make some profit

And I'm wondering how picky I have to be with what I buy

everything turns at least some profit but i cant tell you what margin makes it worth it to you

the general high volume shit people do is like beryl, aluminum, titanium, and apparently helium

Ok, so plenty of options then. And I assume most people buy at moons and sell at major cities?

if you only have low volume drugs are the only thing not complete shit when compared to any other gameplay loop

Is there a way to check if a location will buy my goods, and for what price before I use the terminal? Or is it something you get a feel for with experience?

Hey any recommendations for trade between orison and loriville /new babbage?

#

Just got a c2 and neeed to make some cash

vestal ravine
#

Look at the 5 sites that have Beryl and use that info to set up a trade route.

#

Beryl? Thanks!

vestal ravine
# hardy trail ??? enlighten because i hate landing at lorville

Here's the deal. The surface entrance is on one of the Perimeter lines at Lorville. But I could not find it in the dark with the ship. So I am getting my alt character at the door and use that as a marker. Once I get the place locked down will develop a access guide to it. Please advise if you want to join me. Bye for now.

Anyone know why c2 would suddenly stop showing having a cargo grid in buy screens?

Pretty sure cargo missions are slightly bugged. When they work they work. When they don't...welll...

i got a taurus, currently buying gold on daymar and gonna sell at a18 tdd, hows that ?

#

servers are really empty right now

vestal ravine
#

Gold can be used as a backfill but try to start with a high grade item like Beryl, Agricium or other top 7.

wet silo
#

got 47scu of beryl because there wasnt alot of gold

#

and how long does it usually take for stock to refill

vestal ravine
#

Then buy Titanium as backfill or fly around to other sites or store try again tomorrow.

So if the game breaks while im qting with an entire c2 full...do i lose everything? Because if so i really only have 1k to my name because this fucking game likes to dc

rough ingot
#

elaborate on what happened

vivid obsidian
#

I was on a quantum jump from new babbage to orison to deliver a (mostly full) ship or beryl. Game dc-ed a little under halfway there.

#

And as im super new i was extremely stupid and put literally all my money into that run.

#

I thought it would be fine..the game had been running well save for the global chat bs.

rough ingot
#

when you say game dc'd

#

did you disconnect

#

or did the server crash

#

aka 30k error

#

if YOU disconnected, then joined a new server its gone

#

if the server crashed, your ship will be moved to your home location, as is

quaint mango
#

is orison still blowing up cargo ships?

#

last few times i went there it decided i shouldnt exist when i was trying to land

rough ingot
#

if atc doesnt acknowledge 'landing complete' and you despawn your ship in that hangar it will become unknown

#

but i did have it happen today where i did everything right and stored my c2, took a century to store and when it finally did over half my beryl was deleted

quaint mango
#

oh it didnt even let me land, i went through the hangar doors and exploded. i was going slow as hell and didnt touch anything

rough ingot
#

probably invis debris

quaint mango

pretty much just RNG if one survives the landing or not then lol

#

Do you store your c2 before going to the tdd to sell?

#

I have a little beryl but it's not showing up when i try and sell it

#

Tdd can see my c2. But nothing shows up when i click it

#

Nope...nvm storing it destroyed it...

#

Literally how do i even progress in this game with everything working against me

vestal ravine
# vivid obsidian Do you store your c2 before going to the tdd to sell?

Yes I stored it at Orison but it did not complete the process. I would say avoid Orison until the 3.19.1 patch drops then if you have to go back there test it with a smaller load(s) Usually Orison works very well for me. I have just completed a survey of the surface or garage dock/building at Lorville. There are no crazy winds there and most people don't go there. It's on the Perimeter Line that goes to Gate 6. There is a white strobe at the top and is 15KM from the terminals. More details later.

vivid obsidian
#

Heading to loriville with a significantly smaller load now. Gonna at least give it a shot

vivid obsidian
#

No idea. Just got to the mining facility for a pickup. Of 10k worth of beryl... lol

#

Then ill be heading to loriville. Why?

vestal ravine
#

Well you should be okay landing at the main spaceport, it's a bit tricky. Just wondering if you were going for the surface entrance that's all.

vivid obsidian
#

Nah. Main hangars

vestal ravine

#

Where do you sell cargo at loriville?

trim geyser
#

is there any incentive to cargo running in a small group as opposed to solo other than security? The server shares commoditys correct? Also can other people in the group purchase and sell from my ship or is cargo exclusive to the ships owner?

vivid obsidian
#

Nvm found it.

And I’m not sure you can buy with people on your ship

Hi, any idea how much Hull C will cost after release in 3.20?

spare cloud
#

Can't tell. Any price we can give you is pure speculation

novel dawn
#

i don't mind speculations 🙂

celest flax
#

its initial concept was 200, id say 350-400

novel dawn
#

its already 350

celest flax
#

so yeah, 350-400, it might rise slightly but not too much or they will take massive backlash

novel dawn
#

👍 thanks for your opinion

celest flax
#

limited use at the moment due to needing a docking collar tbh

#

and its sheer capacity will ruin the economy

novel dawn
#

it probably will dock, the real problem is there is nothing to buy at stations atm

#

i hope cig will rebalance commodity distribution in 3.20 too

celest flax
#

my point exactly, the most profitable resorces are ground based... making the hull C kinda pointless. its a system to system hauler really, designed for much larger economies

#

we lack the resources and economy to properly support something that size right now

novel dawn
#

probably will be useless for some time (as Reclaimer was) until Pyro

celest flax
#

agreed

novel dawn
#

i hope they will leave C2 as a loaner until it will be useful

celest flax
#

unlikely. if you own the ship and its flyable, you'll be granted said ship and the loaner will be taken away from you

novel dawn
celest flax
#

was there?

#

Anyone have success with gun rack on their Cat? When I do the repair I pay they cost of my rifle but it dosent spawn back for me in the rack

#

I think the Hull C will be like a temporary storage for your cargo, you don't buy cargo on land with the Hull C. You use other ships for that then transfer it to the Hull C using cargo decks. Once the Hull C is loaded, you ship to other systems with higher price then dock to a station with a cargo deck, then transfer to another ship like the Herc to sell the cargo.

#

then maybe there will be kiosks in the cargo decks much like the refinery kiosks where you can set work orders for transferring cargo in/out of the Hull C.

vestal ravine
#

Rogue: It's pretty tricky learning what item gets sold at what place. You need to look over the main trade sites on Google search at the above for Iron, then Trade Tools and Gallog. There's Trade items, Commodities, Vices and Harvestables. We can help you but study these sites along the way.

delicate girder
#

Alternately or in addition, CIG may choose make special huge bulk trading contracts which have built-in danger/costs.

vestal ravine

#

Is the Hull C going to have a bay that might hold a couple Furies? How cool would that be if so!

#

Basically, I don't thing CIG is going to make it easy for single players to fly a mega loads of our current commodities and make millions on each load. I think they'll find ways to make it a hard requirement that it's crewed by more than one player to be successful.

#

I think the best thing would be to have contracts where the players are not risking their own money to load the entire Hull C with cargo, and is getting a lesser cut of the profit because of that. That way the hauling contracts become more about protecting cargo and maintaining rep ... kind of like much fancier bounties contracts. Cargo escort contracts.

delicate girder
#

There've been very few space games which have pulled off good escort missions and none have ever done it well in multi-player. Well, EVE online maybe but it's too different. For me, that's like the next step past and our current service beacons and bounty missions!

#

Not only that, they could eventually tie in pirate missions which could be taken against the shipping contracts. That would have to come after server meshing though because right now there's not enough players on one server to really do it justice.

delicate girder
#

I just need a contract which puts a marker on Jumptown until I can get good at finding it without one.

# ocean summit what are some good trade routes I can run with a Carrack?
SC Trade Tools

Star Citizen trade routes

#

The routs with Beryl are way hard to fully stock. The ones with Distilled Spirits are fairly easy to stock at times. Quarts is usually easy. I need to test Medical supplies again.

#

HOWEVER, if the Ninetails Lockdown event comes back around at some point, that's your somewhat more risky why to make some serious cash hauling!

vestal ravine

I think its like actually near impossible for a Carrack or C2 with a TS2 to go down

Heyy, thanks for sharing my video! @delicate girder it is VERY RNG, I've had 20+ missions in a row strike out. The trespass timer is 30 minutes, I'm usually there, scanned and gone within 3-6 minutes. Someone noticed if you find good cargo you can QT to an OM marker and back and the same cargo will respawn. I've heard they recently nerfed these cargo spawn rates but I haven't heard any confirmation on that.

delicate girder
#

One thing I noticed when I accidentally knocked a Freelancer salvage wreck out of the trespass zone is that the contract will stay around forever. It's probably not useful, but it's interesting.

delicate girder
#

Apparently, the 3.19.1 patch is going to add random cargo to wrecks from bounties and other sources too.

Hello Moon! I subscribed to your channel and tried a 10K salvage mission 2 days ago mainly to check into this mystery crate process. Well there were no crates on that Connie but the snub ship looked pretty cool. Anyway I will try some of the higher tier ones have you tried the 150 K mission? I think if a couple of people teamed up on it especially to fight off the NPC ships it might be rewarding. Thanks for dropping in here!

#

Today I had an "Unknown" storage result at Lorville that said I had to claim the ship. It had $279,000 K of Beryl in a F Max. I thought it was lost but I came back 5 hours later and it seemed safely stored and I was able to sell it a few minutes later. But here's a short guide to the garage entrance at Lorville if you don't trust the terminals.

#

GUIDE TO THE GATE 6 GARAGE ENTRANCE AT LORVILLE
FOR SELLING TRADE GOODS OR PICKING UP A ROC

First off get centered over the actual Tesea Spaceport at 4,580 meters in altitude.

Point the front/bow of the ship at the big sloping building.

Turn the ship to your left 45 degrees.

Go straight forward 14 to 15 kilometers

Slowly drop down and look for a medium sized free standing building
that has a white strobe on top. The strobe blinks every second.

It will say “Gate 6” on the front facing away from the city.

Look for the twin ramps and land and go in the center doors.

don't do the orison route - there is no demand there. Someone at Cig turned off the demand there, no doubt.

they were applying hotfix to the servers over the last 12 hours or so,

#

ah nice

#

someone warned of a 30k 10 seconds before it happened

azure dove
#

well 30k is just connection lost

#

it takes time after that for it to actually timeout

#

and the client stops trying to reestablish

#

the chat is a separate connection

ahh ok
imma just check to see if the protection worked

so you can still send chat messages for a bit.

#

i cant even lie
this game always confuses me

azure dove
#

r_DisplayInfo 2 has BwIn and BwOut values, BwIn is Bandwidth of the data being sent to you from server.

#

that'll hit 0 a bit before the game actually throws up the 30k.

#

but as I said, the game can in theory re-establish connection.

solid creek
#

ahh ok

i never knew how people could tell

also 30k is just connection lost, that can be the cat pulled out ethernet cable, the ISP is routing badly, datacenter is routing badly....
