I'm gonna use my Corsair for cargo hauling for a bit. My opinion is invalid.
Also how does a Corsair not have a tractor beam?
It's going to be great when it does, because I can say for a fact that food and drinks wont work, and they'll also manage to make hunger and thirts increase exponentially
so you'll just have people dying everywhere of starvation 
because then there will be 0 things the connie taurus will have over the corsair when picking a pve combat ship
and its not a cargo ship, its an 'explorer'
is hauling still broken
I'm being trolled either 1 box didn't spawn or I somehow forgot or lost it LOL
look at this fucking box just taunting me
best thing to be running rn?
I logged off for the night and the message was gone in the morning
Oh sweet! Glad you got rid of it somehow
So after a bit of consideration, decided to get the C1, even though it has less cargo space than a max
And I'll get the zeus once it comes out if I like it
👍
well if you are brave C1 can carry 3x32SCU containers
If I knew how to leave it afterwards I would attempt that 
simple open rear ramp from cockpit and push middle container out
i did it in PTU
Ok I am completely confused as to where at Tressler I am supposed to get these Quartz for this first cargo contract? 😂
Can anyone confirm if the Hull-C can sell at Orison this patch? I've been hearing different things in Global chat.
Contracts are largely not working. I think the tip right now is to party with someone already on a working contract to get a rep boost past the initial contract
Then you stick to Lagrange point contracts, staying away from Planet or Station contracts
Ok so pretty much just stay away from cargo 😂
Literally the one reason I wanted to play 3.24
Yeah not like 3.24 is called hauling patch
Just the missions (if you dont have a friend with a working mission to help). Honestly its more enjoyable to buy your own product and sell it. That is how I always played cargo.
Are there any Hull-C routes worth it in 3.24?
Outside of the usual Hulll C issues ofc
Yeah that's how I have done it in the past, but I was really looking forward to do the cargo contracts
Guess I will just have to reach out to a friend that already has it done
oh wow, I'd have thought that the pyro/terra ones would be on there. Thanks!
not familiar with those routes anyways i think i will melt Hull C anyways to buggy
I just have one from my BMM loaner
Always wanted to give it a go though, so I reckon I'll try it.
Looks like Heph from Pyro is a cheaper tho
Lol...so I claim my Mole at Baijini since I'm having issues with it....and the text reappears
Do you know what is the max size for admin sales tho? They just denied my size 32
Front tractor beam on the MPUV, should this be working just by using fire as normal? I feel I'm missing something really obvious.
Cutlass black beam doesn't work, possible that others ships beam don't work too
I have melted my MPUV so I cant check, but I want to say its in the SCM modes - possibly scan?
it only functions in that mode and should have tractor beam UI show up when changed to it.
Use the MPUV-t daily. It works like a champ. SCM Mode -> "M" -> Then triger to enable.
I heard the cargo glitch only happens to initial missions, so does that mean other people are able to do cargo missions like normal?
Yeah, just have to have someone share their hauling mission with you to get past the starter one
Then you'll get a bunch of hauling contracts without dealing with the buggy first one
sick
thanks hopefully I find someone
It's location specific which is the same locations as where the starter missions begin
So Even non starter missions that have the same stations that starter missions use will not work
Once you get past the entry level just avoid all leo and local planetary stations
Is it just the starter hauling mission that's impossible to complete?
Sucks, I came back to try hauling missions and they're bugged out, RIP
what is the best commodity to sell, currently been doing beryl, is there something else i should be selling instead?
hi guys how do i fill up a cat? what size scus do i need to order
im at a mining facility and i baught 32scu size boxes. when i go to the elevator to get them it says someting is blocking the elevator...but nothing is. elevator size says 120scu so i should be able to call up a 32scu box no problem right?
Outposts cannot call up 32SCU.. They max out at 24SCU IIRC.
but they they me buy them? thats a scam
Welcome to 3.24... It's been a known bug since PTU.
Supposively they patched it, but i'm guessing not
so can i call them up somewhere else or convert them to 24scu or am i just out the money?
you can sell them, then rebuy 24SCU.. But yeah you'll be out a little money
they say can not sell. well that sucks, thanks for the info
The outposts took a page out of Chris Roberts selling jpegs
Honestly I am surprised you were even able to get the freight elevator to load. It’s just stuck at loading contents for me
is there a way to combine scu boxes, vulture is annoying.
yo they fixed cargo?
station missions seem to be working fine for me now, just picked up 96scu of quartz to delivery from everus
Where can I sell small quantities of gems now? Apparently you can only sell 1 SCU or more at commodity terminals now?
Mining facilities?
It's a bug, no one will accept more than 1 gem at a time
gotta wait for a fix or sell your gem 1 per 1
The hauling missions seem to be fixed... gonna have to check the commodity elevators to see if they managed to fix that
All gems are bugged or can you still sell if you have 1SCU worth?
no clue, in 3.23 only aphorite was bugged and you could only sell it 3 at a time, now you can either not sell your gems or 1 at a time, that's all i know
Ok, what about ores? I already rented a cutter and a ROC thinking I was going to mine hadenite. So maybe I can at least mine ores to make a little money?
I have like 56k to make up right now
I think the roc only mines gems
great
you can store your gems tough for now
and sell them once it's working better
Also if you try it ship mining works
Im pretty sure there is a trick to sell the contents of an SCU box all at once.
they didn't
Are you on the hotfix or live ?
the hotfix is on live now
I was hoping whatever issue had the hauling missions bugged at the stations is the same issue that was causing the "Loading Contents" bug, but nope
Well, I at least got my intro to hauling mission done and unlocked the rookie ranks.
is there anyway to pull a 32s containers out of outposts freight elevators?
is hauling working better now ? 😮
what's the max scu I could fit in my c1 including off grid cargo
5 missions, same locations all loaded up (5 different commodities so I can tell them apart) - wish me luck!
first drop done it now shows all the orders you have on the grid:
how do you pull cargo closer to you in the taurus tractor beam? i assumed it was mousewheel but that's not doing anything
I wrote out a little cheat sheet how much to each location lol
havn't tried it sorry
Any fix for the 32scu crates stuck at outposts ?
Left Alt + mousewheel
well that went well right up until New babbage they reassigned my hangar as I was unloading and the remaining cargo was deleted so can't finish the missions 😦 That's going to be an epic rep hit
Real quick, should I keep the M7A on the C2 or downsize them to get gimbals?
That's a question for #flight-combat-racing but there is no more gimbal downsizing. All weapons are on gimbal by default, which does not downsize. Read #flight-combat-racing pinned messages
I couldn't switch the guns to gimbals only fixed and tracking the cursor
reassigned your hangar? Did ATC say smth like you took too long, your ship will be impounded?
I didn't hear it tbh but maybe, the problem is you always hear multiple player's ATC traffic do you never really know what's yours lol
yeah true I had that too
I'd unloaded it all onto the hangar floor so it just disappeared and the hangar doors started to open
It wouldn't be an issue if the cargo got stored because at least then you could retrieve it
Interesting I've logged back in and I'm at Port Tresser it never saved my location as NB even though I was granted a gateway so definitely something went wrong
well I don't appear to have lost much if any rep so I'm going to chalk that up as a win LOL
It is normal that the price at Grim hex stays the same when i sell stuff without to unload it ?
i thought they add a kind of fee for auto unload,,
The unloading fee is listed separately (on the right side of the Sell window, along with unload time). If it's not listed, I guess you're getting it for free!
yeah probably
Ah, not there - when you click Sell it'll show up in the Confirm window
this is a screenshot from earlier in the week
oh ok gotcha.. thx
I guess if it's not showing there either, you are getting it for free!
In any case it seemed to be a fairly small cost from what I was testing, so maybe it's easier than messing with the boxes for 2SCU 😄
yeah just wanted to know how much it can be.. so at least i unloaded them manualy and sold them
maybe is little cargos fee free..
are there any walkable carts that I can use in my hangar? I recall something linke that being shown in videos, but not sure where to find them.
second time lucky stacked and completed the 5 missions yay! A good chunk of Rep as well 🙂
there was a hover trolley that was supposed to be included but apparently it was pretty broken and therefore not shipped yet
ah - makes sense. I managed to get those larger wheel carts to my hangar, but it took to long to get there to be convenient lol
I'm getting used to hand ballin stuff with the tractor beams now I just throw it around like I work for MyHermes
aint my shit lol
Are you also going to have to rebrand if you get too many customer complaints?
I pride myself on my lack of shits. They get their delivery fast, that's my only guarantee lol
The 5 Misson stack from PT to 2x DC and NB (3 drops) seems the most efficient way to get member rank, takes about 30 mins, helps if you arrange the cargo into 3 bundles as you load so that you don't have to mess around working out what goes where at each drop lol
They're all different cargo so that helps you just need to note how much of each cargo goes to each location and stack accordingly, I wrote it down on a bit of paper lol
Since you can only track 1 Misson at a time
Best tech in the verse
I would not be able to go through a single day without writing something down. So many notebooks.
i got a large box of quantanium but my tactor beam is too weak to move it, do i need a 2 handed tractor beam for it? also, is there a place on orison that sells it?
Providence Platform might have it, otherwise you have to go to Seraphim
ok ill try, ty
I'm loading in and have tons on Orison if you want. I think I'll be at the habs there
i just realized , my whole inventory moved to my home planet. i have a bunch here too LOL
how do you sell at brio's? i put my stuff on the elevator but the terminal just said "loading contents" forever
There is too
damn
The auto features only works for commodities
what about when trading, is there still like a stock problem? like stuff runs out so easily
Hey, having fun now that the hauling missions actually work
Anyone know the answer to this? 
@coral shale sounds like the lift is broken, try to switch server. Note maximum box size is 16scu I believe
I’ve tried on 3 different servers at 3 different times, with the smallest scu boxes
Oof, I'm not sure what else to suggest I've seen this at outposts before workaround was to use one of the other elevators but with scrapyard you only have one.
Also how does one sell a 32 scu box of weevil eggs if they happen upon one?
Perhaps players have sabotage it by throwing stuff down?
There's no way at the moment, make some more noise on spectrum to see if it grabs the devs attention they've overlooked this in the current patch
That’s crazy lol “cargo update” -> can’t sell cargo
What did Q&A/evo/ptu players even test??
I'm pretty sure players were taking about it in EVO/PTU along with 32scu containers at outposts and illegal trading generally been removed so they are aware
You probably don't get many players grinding up to ERT bounties though so the actual scenario probably wasn't tested
there is no auto unload on Salvage yards ?
@lime vessel no your ship needs to be stored to use auto loading/unloading.
ok thx
ok so the ship isn´t available anymore on the terminal
Only when it's stored at the location, so scrapyard and outposts are manual loading/unloading only
i just tried to sell some slam there, i can sell it at the terminal first and then need to put the stuff in the freight elevator to get my money
oh no the terminal is buggy...
nice and now i glitched through the floor... lost my cargo .😩
what do I do if the cargo i bought failed to auto load and if I try to buy more it just says pending transfer 00:00 but wont actually finiosh and my ship is on 0% cap
Whats the deal with selling drugs at GH? I have 3x 32SCU boxes of Altruciatoxin and the kiosk at admin says there is demand - but can't sell em
they probably disabled the sell of 32scu already but they are still in game.. 
It would make sense if there was not enough demand, but I think it says they have 36SCU of available demand.
Just saw at the TDD that auto unload has a cost of 1% from the Scu price. it´s almost nothing.. 250 aue for 1 Scu Quant..
Anyone know the kinda payouts you get for the highest level hauling missions?
Unsure if this is the right place however I'm going to place this here anyways.
I went and did a wreck mission and picked up some of the small crates. I'm trying to sell them however keep running into the issue of the shopping not wanting to buy. "the shop deosnt accept the container size"
Small hand carriable crates ?
gems got broken because of update, so i'd say it's possible they also didn't take into account those crates too ? have you tried sending them down the elevator maybe ?
No... i should probably try that lmao
if you want to trade something now it generally has to go trough the elevator
how do i work the auto loading? do i have to call my ship up first for it to start loading
have it stored at the station you are buying and it should let you choose it as the delivery destination if i'm not wrong
yep did that. gonna wait the loading time it gave me and hopefully when i call it up its loaded...
erm i called my ship and its not loaded
I'm getting insufficient stock at the TDD. What am I doing wrong?
that did work
note to self
do that next time
mmhhh maybe check if it's not in the warehouse
did the money got deducted ?
yea
mmmhhh dunno then, maybe a relog could fix it, but it could also doom it as the transaction would still be on the previous one :/
right stacked 6 this time lol, this could be interesting!
Did the auto load / unload not make it in?
did it made it in the update ? yes
Did it made it in the update alive ? no
sometimes it work, sometimes not
where do you do it?
wdym ?
I've stored the vehicle, but I don't see any option to have it unloaded for me
are you selling or doing hauling contracts ?
hauling contracts
You are responsible for loading and unloading crates from contracts
oh, damn, I accepted like 500 SCUs of cargo to transport thinking I could have the AI load it all up for me while I cooked / ate dinner 😦
nah but you could probably find someone to come by and load it for you, be aware tho you'll have to come back to your pc every like 5min otherwise past 10 mins it logs you out
just tapping w or quickly pressing wasd should reset the logout timer
Can you get larger than 8 scu containers as you progress?
where do you find the dolly to move boxes with in hangar?
whats the method rn for buying low price high quantity rmc or other better source of cargo and selling it somewhere high price
ik the old routes n method but not the new way if any can help out
I don't imagine the routes have changed really, just that it takes longer because of loading and unloading
But also make sure that your sell points cargo lift works otherwise you can't sell
i just swap server had it happen once but its still rmc bc i seem to only be able to get like 20-35 units of it from pickers field and some other spots
Is the ability to have cargo auto loaded to the ship limited to Store Terminals? Or can we do that from the Hangar somehow?
Yes, Experienced rank unlock large hauls which are 16/32 depending on contract
300ish will be 16s (to fit Caterpillar for example) 600ish will be 32s to fit C2, 2k-4k are designed for Hull C, they weren't working in PTU but I believe there's a hotfix coming
thanks
how much money does high end hauling rep pay?
Experienced up to 80k, I don't know beyond that
why is the mission telling me to get things that dont exist at this place?
its in ur freight warehouse
huh?
Its at your Freight Elevator not the store
ur hangar now has a freight elevator
how do i buy the titanium tho
go there lower the elevator then drag the boxes to the left {the elevator} and lift the elevator again n move em to your ship with a tractor beam
for the mission you dont buy it
u auto have it in ur freight warehouse
join my vc for min ill show u im doing it rn check dm
Pretty sure this mission is bugged out right now
they just fixed em
ah, I must have missed the announcement
god damnit CIG...the Raft has no tractor, janky cargo grid, flies like a fully laden hull-c. Why do I really really really want it after just a single flight.
What are auto-loading times and fees looking like?
I keep hearing something about "5 hours"
No longer takes that amount of time. Average time is about 10-15 minutes, but usually far less.
yeah that autoloading time was like early ptu, maybe evo and wave 1 i think
Cool, glad to hear it's not nutzo anymore
Took a mission from ARC L3 to Baijini thinking it was a short trip...I was wrong lol
Tried using commodity shop at shubin mining facility but it was broken, anyone else have same problem?
Wdym it was broken?
Couldn’t interact with the screen
It's all about that kitchenette...
Once you get used to loading 32's onto the Raft it is very quick. It is also quick for loading the smaller hauling contracts. Ship is slow but the design is great and handling well it's a real cargo ship.
The Hull A also flies like a brick but I love that imo, give it personality
Look at this cute pirate
tried to self destruct my ship
and gave me a crimestat XD
why did i get a crimestat for shooting a trasspasser though?
Anyone else having a problem while loading the Taurus using its turret boxes clip through the cargo bay and spaz out causing the ship to detonate
Nice
Experienced definitely has much better solar and interstellar loops. Member was somewhat lacking in variety!
really needs a filter though I have 150 missions now 😄
The good thing I guess is away from the main 4 planets it only shows solar/interstellar missions so browse for ya next en route I guess
150
Yep, same here. The turret tractor beam turns out to be too crude to fine-manipulate with the boxes in the tight cargo bay. Blew myself up already this way.
I really like that you can safely jump out via airlock, without risking any trespassers. And shame that the outposts can't serve 32 SCU containers, it'd be perfect.
Anyone know payout tiers for hauling past junior yet? trying to see rewards vs scu
Member is around 40k per mission.
rip me then
I only do small ones, they pay better.
think my only complaint about member level missions so far is the lack of direct hauls
Can you store and save up cargo? Like say I salvage a bunch and store it through the cargo elevator. Will that stay in store or does it disappear when I log out or whatnot?
Yes, once the cargo is in your warehouse its saved.
Oh snap! That is awesome! Thank you for the reply
I heard something to the effect elevate/lock the ship a few feet up, then try.
i'm curious how the turret boxes clip through the cargo bay. unless they meant cargo boxes and not "turret". (didn't read the "using its" part, my b)
Anyone tried the hull c missions yet
given that the mission system had a complete rework for this patch, has anyone done much box delivery work and has it improved?
After refining, I loaded what I mined into my Spirit, brought it to Lorevile, put it in the freight elevator (manually) and then let it down into the freight elevator. Nothing is displayed in the Lorevile admin (Business District)
Anyone knows why ? (The Game says the Boxes are still inside my personal inventory of Lorevile but dont show to sell)
I've had similar issues transferring inventory items. Loaded then into freight and sent them down, but they wouldn't register in the station inventory. I had to re-log to fix it
Not sure if there's a way to force it to update that's easier
i reloged, still nothing changed, cant sell
did you think in future updates it maybe will then be sellable and i can stack everything what i mine in this next week ?
Probably but who knows? Can't say for certain without knowing what's going on in the server to cause the issue
Also, would recommend documenting and either making or contributing to an issue council report for it.
jeah i did it, thank you for your answers Krovik. Very nice from you ! 🙂

Anyone have issues with crates randomly disappearing when unloading with tractor from the raft ? It's wrecking my profits
Your RAFT tractor beam works?
No I mean with handheld beam
No but I do wish the elevator would default to lower deck <-> exit ship
Yeah, I lost 4 out of 12 boxes when unloading the raft. Everything in NB hangar, before the hotfix. I think it's related to deassigning the hangar from you when you spam the landing request or don't land properly on the pad to trigger the "landing finished" message.
What is the cheapest commodity I can buy 32 SCU containers of? Looking to stock up on containers.
scrap, probably. Or waste, but same idea.
Why are you trying to stock up on just containers?
I do SC racing, and I may be entertaing the idea of setting up some form of cargorunner race where you would need to load up your ship, follow the route, then unload it. Very rough draft atm.
So if I have everyone run the raft thats 3 32s per participant
Or 6 16s
Guess lorville elevators are still broken
Waste, then Iodine. Waste's better, since you can get it in cities in 32 size containers, for ~3 aUEC/SCU.
Where can you sell illegal cargo at? I was helping some guy unload, he went off to sell while I finished unloading and sent it down -- we both learned that it goes to the inventory of whoever presses the button so I just paid him the fair value...and now I gotta offload this somewhere
So many lessons learned in one go
I believe at grim hex or a no questions asked terminal
Is this a list of NQA terminal locations?
There's two
I loaded a bunch of bought SCU boxes into my Taurus (pre-hotfixes) using the lower turret without any problems. Unloading was a little trickier since in an XL hangar the freight elevator was about at max tractor beam range, unless you deliberately land closer to the freight elevator.
CRU L4, and the other CRU L5 maybe ?
Yeah, CRU-L4 and L5.
And they may actually have fixed the internal elevators at L5.
You call ATC like usual
What do I do if the hanger ATC keeps assigning me already has a ship in it
I'd go in 
Simply crush the other ship under the weight of your cargo 
My home hangar has multiple ships/vehicles in it, but they're mine. Also, it's possible that a hangar you think you were assigned is actually not the right hangar, just close to it. That's happened before.
no.. it's the one they assinged me
can someone come tractor it out of the hanger?
And tell Dunzo the key is MMB.
NAV FLT mode
Lol, Zorgh helping others from beyond the veil
so.. this is a thing now
I was at a small outpost last night when a c2 literally just bashed my Raft off the landing pad to take it. I should of thrown crates at it
Ok so CRU L4 won't take stolen RMC
or rather, will take it for 1/SCU lol
gonna load it back in and try at CRU L5
CRU-L5 will take it, according to uexcorp.space
you need to sell stolen goods at the outposts. any "reputable" area won't take stolen goods (or at least they didn't use to)
CRU-L4 and CRU-L5 do have NQA terminals, but will only take specific stolen items
If this was a normal game I'd cut my losses and move on to whatever loop I felt like doing, but these are valuable lessons/skills
Ty
This has been like a 3-4 hour JOURNEY trying to sell all this and my mining cargo
welcome to star citizen
Yeah, lots of 3.24 bugs made it longer
I wanted to try auto unload but my home (A18) has the store/retrieve bug, so I went to Lorville to learn that the elevators were broken
I had some issue with NB as well so I just went back to A18 and manually unloaded things
Fun fun fun
yeah, first cargo mission went off without a hitch.
2nd one.... well....
accepted 2 missions, one from CRU L1 and one from Pyro jump station, both going to everest.
Loaded up at CRU L1, went to pyro.
pyro was all jacked up (see posts above), so I said screw it and just went to everest with the cargo load from CRU L1.
Unloaded CRU-L1 cargo at everest
None of the 8 SCU boxes would register in the terminal as mission objectives (so I had like 6 SCU of material that it would accept).
Said "Screw it, mission bugged", abandoned the contract.
Contract manager "Please return the ~200 SCU of material to CRU-L1"
Alt+F4
probably going to wait a couple of weeks for 3.24.1 to come out and maybe it won't be nearly as broken
That is not true. When I was doing the ghost cargo glitch, you would always turn around and sell and Rec & Disposal. Salvage yards will take (stolen) RMC.
I was just able to sell at CRU L5
That may be the single outlier from the norm

For like 11k/SCU which kinda sucks cause I gave the guy 14k/SCU thinking it was gonna be easy to sell it normally
oh well, small loss
cant believe some missions straight up dont give you enough cargo
I can
or give you the wrong cargo 🙄
you lose so much rep when that happens it makes it impossible to make money
is there an issue council post for that already?
Did they fix the hauling missions not showing cargo in elevators yet?
Yes, somewhat
Although you still may have to call one one SIZE of boxes at a time, the system does not like to bring up different sizes simultaneously.
Hm
All mine have delivered the boxes fine?
same
I did a hauling mission and as i sent the lift down and completed the mission, i then accepted new missions but found out the stuff i just delivered were still in my inventory/on the lift still
you can just ignore that and grab the cargo for your current contract
Has anyone found a work around for selling gems yet
No
I heard you could sell in 3 stacks or multiple of 3, worth a try
So as long as the stack is divisible by 3 I think it sells
I sold a 60 stack on PTU but a 40 stack wouldn't go (transaction mismatch)
sigh Well, I just bought 32SCU containers at an outpost without thinking. I thought that had been patched out?
They fixed the part where 32s were given for outpost/scrapyard delivery but not the buy bit I think
Ah. Well, in the immortal phrase - F this game, and I'll see you tomorrow.
Anyone else find that boxes at the back of the elevator cant be picked up with the max lift unless you get really close to them?
i have a dumb question, I can't seem to pull cargo towards me with the spirits tractor beam
it just stays at the same distnace away no matter how much I scroll
what does that even mean though, its a box, how do I get a different angle on a box so I can pull and push it closer and further?
I get up close and move them around
One side will like you
I'm assuming you're trying to tractor from the freight elevator?
and they are all in a row
i mean shouldn't be any different right? works fine with the hand held
I think the patch changed increase/decrease distance
🙂
Are hauling contracts lost upon bed log?
All contracts are lost when you log out in any way
OK, so how TF do you sell now? I had a vulture filled with 25scu - I put on elevator at A18, dropped into warehouse, went to sell and it told me to put things on the elevator. Go back to hangar, bring everything up, go back to TDD and it doesnt find it. Decided to move everything to a Cutty Black. Go back to TDD, it sees the RMC/CM - create the sell order, it asks if it wants me to pay to have it unloaded, I say no, it says to put in elevator. Go back to hangar, put everything on elevator. Go back to TDD and it just shows still waiting order. Go back to hangar, drop it back down into the warehouse. Elevator shows green checks as if I am satisfying the sell order. After dropping into the warehouse, check my wallet, no additional money. Go back to hangar thinking I needed to do something else, nope, nothing there(ALL RMC gone, not in warehouse or on elevator anymore). Go back to TDD and my sell order is still sitting there like its looking for something. WTAF --- How is this supposed to work?
Did you send the elevator down after putting your cargo on it
I would just store it and wait until they fix the bug that is preventing the sell - they will fix it.
ah well, Ill just take a loss here I guess. the boxes are gone now
they have said also that the hotfixes will not reset refinery jobs, ammo, sustenance, etc
yeah you might have to - if thats the only loss your doing good!
nothing like just randomly blowing up leaving or landing in a hangar to start your day
Yeah, it was only 300k - I was looking forward to it but it is what it is and yeah, I'm sure others have it worse than me
Has cig mentioned anything about cargo from previous missions staying on the freight elevator
of course
anyone elses freight manager nonstop content laoding?
got me a pickup truck for local deliveries lol
this really is perfect for this local planet hauls it's quick in atmo, easy to load and unload. simples
How do you do auto-loading?
Man, the Taurus has really been great this patch. It's a breeze to load/unload using its tractor beam and it's pretty agile compared to other haulers and is one of the few (or only?) choice for the 200 SCU target
The only drawback would be that it's not great with 8 SCU boxes, so above 120 SCU+ would be a bit iffy since they cannot stack double on top of each other
when you buy cargo you can pay extra for it to be loaded, your ship must be stored at the location for this to work so it cannot be used at outposts or anywhere that does not have hangars. It also cannot be used for mission cargo, you must load this by hand
Yeah, I can imagine. I've used C2 a fair bit as well. Its has great handling, but it's a little annoying to load up with a manual tractor device
I'll probably try it out some more with the MPUV once I climb the ranks a little bit more on hauling missions
is there a way to merge smaller boxes into larger ones
having to load 64 1 scu boxes into my c1 is a pain
for commodity cargo yes, you can put them inside 8scu storeall boxes however not for mission cargo it cannot be stored in them
Like I buy an 8 scu store all box from a cargo centre and put the 1 scu boxes in it?
yep excatly, you can do that at the inventory kiosk (easier) or the freight elevator when it's down
works for RMC and anything you loot, etc but not for mission specific cargo it was disabled
do I keep the 8 scu box once I've sold or is the price of the 8 scu box included in the sale?
yeah keep and reuse they're expensive and you will have to move the boxes out again to sell them, it's a faff tbh but better than moving 64 x1
Yea i'll give it a go later, thanks for help 😃

Do you get more rep for doing the higher level contracts?
yes
it's all relative per level so there's little point doing jnr rank missions if you've reached member as you get less rep (and pay) per contract that's essentially the same
small/medium/large does not seem to make a differnce
Good to know, so stacking small missions can yield more rep per run
Yeah 1 sec;
I did this about 3 times it was around 2/3 of the member rank
can the hull c be used for the 3.24 hauling missions? if so how?
no, AFAIK. Unless you have at least two people.
we do have 2 people
i just dont understand how it'd work with the hull c's strange loading
You'd have to go into a Large hangar with the spindles extended, and then have another person manually load the spindles.
I think you can stack some small ships like the Fury on a Hull-C spindle, right?
You could have a 2nd person in the Fury to shuttle down to the ground and then load it up, and then stack themselves back into the spindle for the delivery trip
You can also use a smaller ship to ferry the containers into space and load them onto the Hull C there
Funny thought - does the SRV tractor beam work on containers as well as ships? You could tow your Hull C and use it like a cargo hitch, and then park it inside a large hangar and have the SRV load up the spindles, reconnect, and then do some space trucking.
whats the biggest ship that you can rent?
corsair iirc but dont quote me on it
Anyone else have a large personal hangar in Orison and have the issue of the cargo grid not snapping when delivering cargo?
Is a large hangar big enough to fit an extended hull C? I have an XL so I have enough room to fly around with one, just curious how much smaller a large hangar is compared to an XL
I get that sometimes, but in any hangar not just orison's large
Thanks. I don't suppose you know of a fix for it. I mean it workable just annoying.
I doubt an extended hull C would fit but it's just a guess.
In size or in cargo capacity?
cargo capacity
its bigger than a C1?
Yes, it has 174SCU capacity
gad damn really?
Its also extremely good for cargo since it has a manned tractor turret that works very well - much better than the C1
i see
168scu of usable capacity as the other 4 is in that shielded section and really not all that useful.
And hard to get to, tbh. Especially when tractoring boxes.
hmm I think my maths was off there
Well, you can definitely sprinkle more cargo inside easily enough if you really want to load it to the max - off grid
You can put another 32 SCU box on top, and it slots in once the cargo elevator goes up.
Freelancer Max is probably your next best option
how much space?
Ugh, you wanna talk about awful layouts of cargo, though, that's your ship.
The FreeMax is STUPID. That stupid middle area that takes 2 SCU boxes, the fact that there could easily be another 24 SCU of cargo space if they just made that rear turret remote, I HATE the FreeMax.
120 I think
ok
Yes, but some of it can't be used if you have 8 scu mission boxes
I would recommend the RAFT, it has 96 SCU, and is exterior loaded, so easy enough to load and unload. And she's PURDY.
Can you rent the Raft?
Taurus is nice until you blow it up multiple times with the tractor beam
Afaik, it gets almost maxed out on 8 scu boxes capacity by the 100 scu medium missions
I have never done this!
I believe they added it this patch, yes.
Sounds like skill issue tbh
I did 2 times, 1 time blocked a crate between cargo and landing gear
Other time the crate clipped inside the cargo when detaching it from the grid, saw it was a patch on the hot fix right after
Yes
raft is outside cargo?
Yessir!
how can you put multiple small boxes in it then?
On the sides yeah
they just stick? they dont need to be the right size?
You load them just like anything else, put them on the cargo grid.
bru its 100k a day
same price as taurus at this point lol
How much cargo space do you need?
as much as possible
no requirements
we have a C1
would be nicer for cheap to get more space
For why? If you're hauling commodities and not doing hauling missions you'll earn more than the daily rental with a Taurus.
I didn't realize you were talking renting lol. Most times it doesn't matter the overall size of the cargo grid, it'll more matter how good the standard quantum drive is.
we do hauling missions yes
we are using the C1 for now
Just stick with the C1 until you need more than 96SCU of space since the C1 can comfortably fit 96 with 32 off grid.
C1 is a GREAT little ship, and you can realistically and feasibly put more then 100 SCU in it if you fill in the empty spaces outside of the grid.
how do you go around when theres stuff in the middle ahahah

Just use a tractor beam to move it out of the way
You don't. You use the ship tractor to load it and unload it, then leave the copilot's seat.
Technically never have to leave the ship if parked properly - assuming the elevator is raised.
To anyone an everyone reading this there will be a Hull-c with 10.7 mill full of Hephaestainte at everus harbor docking harbors since they are still broke been trying to dock for 30min now, it will be open an not restricting a space so no impound (iv been testing them for year+ now an lost 100mill+ of grind) see ya next year an good luck
But its the Cargo Empire patch! Surely the Hull-C finally works?
lol keep taking the Hopium
I bought one in game, and have honestly never even retrieved it.
works hella better then last year but nope
I got it to dock this patch! so progress, but auto-loading with it still is v broken
addicted to it
I'd say the c1 can fit closer to 110 scu, if you also fill the "airlock"
Wish the C2 had an internal tractor beam tho
Like on the cutlas, that just folds to the side
Can anyone tell me how to trade with hull c now pls?
AFAIK it hasn't changed it just still doesn't work 98% of the time
Awesome… 😆
After contacting cargo services/station it puts a box for the transfer, but won’t begin
- deliver ship
- buy commodity at admin terminal
- retrieve ship
- request cargo ATC
- fly into blue square 🟦 (make sure you open the spindles alt+k)
- go make a coffee
- once loaded fly to wherever you want to sell at
- dock (or EVA via pad>elevator)
- go to admin office>create sell order
- return to ship and request cargo ATC
- fly into blue box
- profit
- alt-F4 never play again
Yeah, if doing straight commodity trading, never use the Hull C.
Thanks, thought so. I get to the fly into blue square step.. and nothing will start the process
Yep, known issue 
I'm surprised you got past 3 tbh
lol
That has never stopped them before, why would it now?
Haha true but sad
Has anyone filled the front of a Carrack, can it carry much? I'm thinking can I squeeze 96scu (12x8) to combine an A-B cargo mission with A-B trading. Happy to use ny snub to enter/exit.
is auto loading commodoties bugged atm?
You can also get the bug where the warning about leaving cargo behind never goes away and stays across logins and ships
guys how much pay the highest rank haul mission?
Couple hundred thousand, I thought, to moves a couple (2-5) thousand SCU
100k?
Is it exclusively the Taurus that has this issue?
Nah, the fix doesn't specify a ship when it talks bout the grid issue
Is there a fix incoming?
Because I've has a cargo box glitch into the ground when I tried picking it up with a tractor and blow up my ship twice so far
It's already on the hotfix, but I don't know if it was merged in the live
But there was an update so I guess it was merged
Well I had the issue pop up an hour or so ago, so it isn't fixed
I'll try the hotfix channel
I need a Spartan chassis flatbed with a front tractor instead of a turret NEOW CIG, before 4.0!
I made it to step 12 what do I win?
Can you make it past step 10 or are you stuck? Good effort though!
Hmm yes I meant step 10, as stuck as my step sister
What are the best commodities to trade at the moment
I'd recommend trying to find a nice route of your own and keeping it quite, the main ones are always struggling with supply/demand. Example I used to run Diamonds which always had stock/demand, the return was average but I could do the loops without waiting time
I used to do it in my Carrack was about 100k/per run took 15-20 mins as it was just an outpost on MT to New Babbage and I used to just park on the ice, obviously things have changed a bit in 3.24 though...
I did not notice this button earlier when accepting hauling contracts. Is it some temp button to 'cancel' a mission and avoid rep loss temporarily due to all the bugs?
I believe it will partially finish the mission without rep loss if for example you were unable to deliver all the packages, I'm not sure how much reward you get, I wish I'd seen it earlier I failed a few contracts for losing 1 box lol
Yeah, I thought it could be something like that as well, it would make sense
Would be cool if completing 80-90% of the mission would give something like 80-90% of the rep/money reward (though I imagine the rewards being a bit less)
Yeah I'll test it out next time the opportunity arise
I had a 32 SCU container bug out and fall through the roof while loading, so I guess I will find out soon enough what kind of reward I end up getting on a 600ish SCU contract 🙂
I'm making solid progress 25% through Experienced Rank but I have found a good stacking route so it's just 1 by 1 but I don't mind, it's easy work lol
I dropped a 32 on the ramp of my C2 and it blew up lol
Yeah, same. Going back and forth on a few stations only focusing on 1 mission at a time (2-3 runs into Experienced too) 🙂
I'm mostly doing the local runs in my C1 I also tested the Nomad earlier which was surprisingly good little pickup truck!
Yeah Ive learned never to put containers on the c2 ramp lol
I think you can make a circuit between the LEOs and Jump points so you always have a mission in hand
If you fill the C2 getting that last 32 in is a pain!
I was able to stack a large and medium together but it took forever to load lol
Ah nice, you're doing small SCU's! (Tbh probably nice in terms of scenery. I just load a C2 mostly full and go from gateway stations so that I can do other things while waiting for those long quantum warps) :>
Yeah it's DCs mostly alternating between Microtech and Hurston. The drops are quick but it's 3-4 locations, you can stack some if they're going to the same places but when I was working through member stacking 6 missions it got complicated and I had to use a notepad lol
Latest tech lol
I loaded it in 3 stacks so was faster to drop off, took a while to sort lol
That all went in my Corsair
Oh nice haha, I like it! Yeah, I'm gonna try a few of those variants tomorrow. Doing long-ass gateway hauls 1:1 is starting to make it a bit boring, though loading 32 crates feels great in general
Maxlift one is pretty great though, the range is far, but I guess the multi tool is a little more agile on small boxes
I miss my Taurus. Hope the hotfix solves the claim unavailable issue
So I clicked 'submit' on the mission where I had one 32 crate bug into the floor and get lost. I think I got most of the money and rep reward, so that's nice! Definitely not gonna fuzz about it if a few crates bug out in future missions
Thanks for testing that!
That definitely helps stressing about that 1 rogue box spoiling your day lol.
It would be nice when we get new features if the design team would put out some mote detailed docs detailing things like this tbh
I know we get the patch notes but there's a fair bit left to the players just to figure out!
Yeah, idk if this button was introduced in the last few hotfixes or that if it's there since PTU but it turned out great 🙂
has anyone seen a hauling contract that uses larger than 8SCU boxes? i have the "member" contracts and still havent seen any
You will get 16 and 32 at Experienced
thank you!!!
cant wait to be able to effectivly use my c2 for these lol, ive been using my c1 cuz its been enough
haha yeah, I hear you! Tbh I think Member rank was quite boring. Pay was bad and the progression was a slog. Experienced feels like an improvement. I also wanted to handle 32 SCU boxes rather than fat and tall 8 SCU boxes a plenty
I found the Taurus to be amazing in Member ranks. The tractor beam on that ship is incredible
Is there another hotfix planned?
I have the stupid claim issue too 😭
Yeah it's in the hotfix build server right now.#sc-patch-notes message
im using my c1, but the c1 is a lil harder to use for member contracts it seems
i might painfully stack a ton of member contracts in my c2...if i get lucky
they NEED to add a search bar or filter to contracts lol
So I just brought back a load of refined ore from the refinery and as I was unloading them in my Hangar to the elevator all the cargo containers not on the elevator just vanished......
Issue when landing in an hangar where you don't have permission to land in
does the Rookie, cargo missions with multiple drop offs give more reputation? they are the same price and the single drop offs so just wondering why.
does quantity of cargo matters for reputation gain?
is there any workaround to the cargo elevator kiosk perpetually 'loading contents'?
I believe it’s the same amount of rep per tier of contract. The main difference is the payment amount varying due to quantity, # of stops, and distance
Server hop
They're working on a fix for it. A different server might help, but changing servers would cancel any missions.
not for a mission, spent all my money on gold without checking that the elevator worked lol
Then changing servers is a more viable option. Note that outposts can't handle 32 SCU containers though. (And shouldn't be able to sell them, but that needs fixing.)
fortunately i bought them in 16 scu containers, been trying server hopping buut i might just have to be patient for the hotfix
Is there a way to dictate the SCU boxes you use for cargo hauling contracts? wondering if you could trade 1x8SCU crate for either 4x2SCU or 2X4SCU crates to fit the Taurus better
afaik the contracts specify the max size you'll receive and then give you the largest sizes possible to fullfill the contract requirements
short answer no
IF i have a hauling mission telling me to drop and samson and sons salavage where do i actually put the boxe
There is a cargo elevator that is basically just an orange platform and a small tower next to it. Its not in a building or anything
Kk thanks found it
buried in ships :/
Lol yeah I never go to places like that
Did the Freight elevator bug get fixed?
Can we use a mule to load cargo frommissions?
Mule is not really functional
Nope Mule is a waste of money
hard to say that a vehicle you can get ingame for 68k can be a waste of money
you can use a mule to carry s1 boxes, its not efficient and gl grabbing anything larger than 1scu but i think its cool
i should get a couple to park at each end of my hangar
although, now that I think about it, that would count against the spawn limit
Hey does anyone have a goot strat with tractor to load/unload, so that my finger doesnt die after a while?
Why would it die ? If you're in detaching mode, you only click to activate the tractor, you don't have to hold it
Oh, there's the scrolling game

I wish I had a mouse with free rolling wheel
Thats what I was thinking too. May be able to set other keybind but I do not know how it would behave with pressed buttons
Logitech. My mouse has a scroll wheel I can toggle to be free rolling. 🙂
I tried changing the keybind but each press is .1m movement
Can't hold it ?
You could also bind it to an axis
If you have any other than mouse
Holding didn't do anything other than the initial press
And I use mouse and keyboard
F
Has anyone tested the Hull C with the new hauling contracts recently? Are they still broken? I only tested it on the PTU and the day the update went live.
anyone else not able to load 1scu boxes into those 8scu containers you can buy?
mission cargo? CIG disabled that but commodities like RMC should still work
not yet I'm kinda worried to lose the rep LOL
slowly making my way through experienced....
I abandoned 4 stacked hauling mission. it didnt affect my rep? did something change?
yeah i had to abandon a few too, didn't lose any reputation
was a few days ago though
is there a high risk high reward hauling?
Not that I've seen yet. Pyro maybe...
Experienced is quite slow I've done about 15 missions I think, just over 1/3 through
So I guess 45ish needed
Someone said in chat it was about 250 missions to max rep, I can believe that.
I had a nice stack earlier 2 smol solar missions dropping Mic1 through 4 and a pickup from each dropping back at PT.
how much experience pay?
Not much more tbh 53k vs a 38k from member for example comparable mission.
Max are 80k these are the large hauls for Hull C
There's some multi drop up to 73k
not bad for consistent and reliable income low risk
Tbh I don't mind the credits it slowly adds, up, stacking 3x 40k Misson taking 45 mins is OK for me
Yeah those 53k one can be done 15-20 min if you're quick
have you encountered griefers yet? i feel so vulnerable in outpost disto where they can just yank out one of my cargo. causing it to fail
whats the state of the hull c?
is it daily-able?
I tried the Hull C in PTU it was still broken so I've not bothered yet.
i see
i tried using my caterpillar today but its a bit of a disaster so im thinking of upgrading to a c2 or hull c
Not at all but I mainly do the DC missions as I've found the outposts have a higher chance for the FE to be broken. I've totally avoided the mining outposts, I expect to encounter players there. With bigger drops at DCs you can get a hangar for privacy
I see thats good to know! thank you!
My pleasure!
That makes it sound like I don't like seeing other players lol, that's totally not the case I just weigh up the risk.
Assuming the mining outposts are more active then more chances the FEs will be broken!
ahhh damn yeah mission cargo. Thats annoying. Back to loading 1 scu boxes one-by-one
Yeah but thankfully everything jnr and above should be min 4scu boxes if you avoid the extra small contracts
Yes, still broken/rough experience. I did a few routes and left with a forever lasting error on my screen when I'm in the pilot seat
Is kamikazeing an efficient form of pirating or something, or am I just getting trolled? Twice today I've been lawn darted by a smaller ship when I'm about to pull into my hangar to finish a hauling mission.
More likely a griefer
how do I sell all the cargo I just moved into my warehouse
Head to the TDD of the city you're at
wasn't appearing
it's there but TDD didn't show it
Is it RMC that you scrapped, not bought?
yes
Does anyone else have a problem where tractor beams refuse to remove scu boxes from cargo grids
yeah, I usually have to spam it a few times
Then it will not recognize Comoddities you have created
so what do I do
Leave it and wait for them to fix it.
Thanks for the tractor beam tip
Why would you do that? You might as well leave it in the warehouse.
because I want to sell my cargo?
And you won't be able to, no matter where you go, so you might as well leave it where it is.
damn
the tractor beam will only grab onto the box on certain sides. For 32 scu boxes I found this was the non-flat side. If you are using the raft, boxes will unload if you pull them from the rear - not the side or the front.
The boxes were 1 scu
Just making sure -- there's no light switch for the connie taurus' cargo bay, right? seeing if things are next to eachother is rather difficult with how lighting is
When you sell cargo from your ship, does it just say "Processing Order" for a really long time for the unloading? Want to make sure I'm not staring at a bug for next 10 minutes.
Yeah, at the TDD screen? It would, if you selected auto-unload, because people are unlaoding the ship.
Can you not buy the illegal cargo from outposts anymore? SC-trade tools doesnt list them
"Waiting for Pending Result"? Whats this?
does anyone know how to add items into an scu box in the freight elevator?
put SCU box on the elevator, dont raise it, dbl click SCU box on elevator, drag items from warehouse into open container, close container (top left of elevator side of UI), and then raise it.
Thanks man cant believe i couldnt figure that out
okay is there a way to get to more pages in the frieght manager i cant see all my stuff even under just helmets
It seems that all the terminals have gone which is a huge disappointment, smuggling vice was a big loop for me
Is the tractor beam red or green? I've been at some space ports (I think) and I actually have to walk almost into crates to get the beam to go green and allow me to move the crate. Once off the initial grid spot it all seems to work fine. It's happened on various sized crates.
it is red until I snag it from the non-flat side, then it turns green.
its been consistent too, so its not like its just because it is in the spawn area - that happens anywhere I try to pick it up
Annoying. I only get it randomly and it's anonoying.
I am also referencing 16scu containers or bigger
no issues with anything smaller from what I remember
I'll have to pay closer attention but I think I've had it on 8's
Only took liek 30ish minutes, but all unloaded
Has anyone here gotten past member rank for cargo missions? If so what rank and what's the highest pay out you have seen at that rank.
Member 49k multi stop mission
did commodity prices change with 3.24
Besides that my biggest run was 7 missions for pick up around micro and it's moon cilo to deliver to port tressler. There we were 6 stops in total. Some missions had pickups at same location. About 300 scu total for a combined pay was about 120k for 2 ½ to 3 hours of game play and 3 game crashes.
I believe RMC price changed for buying. Not for selling though
RMC buy and sell price got changed. That is for sure
Used to make 550k per vulture run and now its likr 460k
I think RMC dropped by 1k or something
It's between 12's and 13's
That seems like the only change so far 🫤
Damn, that being said. Just sold RMC at it's normal value back in 2.23
I'm on experienced, 73k for multi drop and 80k for Hull C (not working) mission
3.23
Yeah I think the price was adjusted slightly, it's still printing credits compared to other careers and you don't have to keep making runs to and from TDD to print boxes so overall should be more efficient
When I sold last. It was in the low 13k. But Just got it at 14.7k
I stashed 30 odd boxes earlier but I didn't have time to sell yet
I just did a big trip in the connie and sadly still got more to load and unload
I decided I'll just drop straight to the LZ after I salvage, it was a bit of a faff loading big boxes
Yes, ship must be stored
ty
I only have a Vulture sadly. So I am stuck with 1 SCU containers
Was hell
And I gotta do it again lol
Wouldn't mind getting a reclaimer. But that is still sometime away to buying
31.7mil
Hot damn
I park with my ramp right by the freight elevator and just lob them in like an angry Evri driver
Im shy 23.3 mil for a reclaimer
I had 7m but I spend 1.5 on a nomad, it's pretty sweet for the local small hauls
If only we could remote control the freight elevator. Never have to leave your seat otherwise
tall dream
So I stored my ship, and attempted to sell with auto-unload it just has the spinny circle forever.
Assuming its broken?
Anyone know any tricks to the tractor beam, scrolling absolutely sucks lol
this little pickup truck really is growing on me for missions!
love just throwing random stuff I find in the back lol
I heard RMB + Scroll makes it faster
is there a workaround yet for the loading content bug
guys i went to buy stuff from trade terminal in space station, i click on the material options and when i click it shows that its red, how to fix that
I does not unfortunatly
Its not the speed thats the issue, its having to scroll 100x lol
yeah same I will have to take some breaks as I have bad hands
did you make sure to select the desitation where bought cargo goes
uhhh
thats what i see
is yur ship stored? it needs to be
uhhh no where in hangar can i do that
you can just select the station as the destination, then use the freight elevator to load, note the nomad takes max 4scu x 4 and 2 scu x4
same way you summon your ship you put it away
thats in hangar?
there's a freight elevator in every hangar yes where you can call your cargo
i wanna do the thing through the commodities tablet and not the freight elevator, isnt that possible
terminal*
so store your ship from the fleet manager terminal, only then can you autoload cargo
yes it's possible as long as your ship is stored you will have to pay a little for loading and wait, wont be long for your small ship
oh ok i get it
Has anyone maxed out their rep for hauling? Wondering what the highest/max SCU shipment is
from the ptu, probably the same now
2k scu for 80k I saw in chat
If only upping your rep wasn't harder than lowering it tough 
How do you tell the game to 'only take this many please'?
Only take this many?
Like from the above example, only delivering 762 SCU to one place
via the cargo deck
There's already 4000scu delivery missions with Experienced Rank (for Hull C)
Is that 4000SCU mission even doable? I guess you'd have to ferry your cargo one load at a time with a smaller ship to a spindle extended Hull C?
i just did a cargo i bought 24 scu of copper and an error appeared and my money is now fucking gone
Could be worse. There are players who have bought 10mil in cargo for a Hull-C only to have the sale bug out and be unable to move the product.
like im at the terminal for trade i click on all the options and then i click buy and then some error comes and i lose all my money and my only option is "accept"
this is dumb af
Did you even check to see if the supplies were in your warehouse?
Beforehand or after
After your money was taken, of course. As though maybe the transaction succeeded and you now have 24SCU of copper in your warehouse.
i left though lol
if i rejoin
Assuming you are familiar with the new cargo elevator system that stores all your cargo.
could it be there
If the sale was successful it would still be in your inventory.
ok lemme see
You have to go to your hangar, and click on the cargo elevator terminal, and make sure to send the lift down so you can search the warehouse inventory.
alr
It's loaded in the usual way via the Hull C cargo ATC but currently it's not working
Could you feasibly load it manually through the hangar by pulling 1024 SCU at a time and using a shuttle system?
It would take too long to be economical
nothing in warehouse
Its just 125 32scu boxes.
The auto loading has been playing up that's probably what's happened as I was unable to buy any cargo to my Carrack, best to buy to warehouse and load manually for now
Ahh well, 24 SCU of copper is pretty small loss. You're going to lose millions in the alpha through various bugs. If that's not going to be tolerable then I would suggest curbing your expectations a touch. Game is far from polished!
Yea, I had auto unloading break in Orison for me, so I had to swap servers and hit up Grim Hex where it actually worked.
Couldn't sell my CM from the reclaimer, would just say processing forever, and when you break from the terminal after 5 minutes you will break any transactions going forward at that city.
speaking of losing millions i lost a full c2 of 2mill worth of cargo 2 days ago! ive finally reached the point where i dont rage quit im very proud of myself
Heh, I blew up two reclaimers from bugs yesterday both had been fully stocked with CM and a full hopper ready to be unloaded also.
Also lost about 2mil in found cargo when the ramp on my corsair jumped, and knocked me through the planet, so I had to relog and it switched me to a new server... was like a bunch of weevil eggs and drugs.
I sold my Vulture salvage earlier, that worked thankfully, I'd unloaded it manually of course
Oh yeah, manually unloading a vulture no biggie - trying to put any volume of cargo into the reclaimer elevator, chore not worth the time.
Thankfully the auto-unloading did work once I stored at Grim Hex.
Now I need to hop back on and stack the rest of the stuff...
Reclaimer CM isn't too bad. You can get 2 full loads off the starfarer salvage missions and they dont even cost you money - they pay you to salvage them.
Wonder of its worth collecting all the abandoned mission cargo from DCs and running it to Hex lol.
Though you do have to extract the CM in 8 and 2 SCU boxes in order to fit it all on the various grids.
In the time it takes to do that, you could have done a single bounty mission for more payout.
True, was more for the lolz tbh
I'm still working my way through the hauling ranks, about halfway through experienced...
I've only unlocked the junior tier because I was trying to find a real money maker. Hauling missions might be good once you have the ability to combine multiple 50k+ payouts.
yes but guess what my broke ass has 5k now
i cant buy anything
Well you could do a hauling mission, no upfront costs
13k or so for the evaluation I think
You have a nomad right? It's absolutely perfect for the small haulage missions
One thing the hauling missions has taught me, the 300i isn't so good for small cargo missions. It can hold up to 8 SCU, but with a 6 SCU load, I had trouble getting boxes unlocked from the grid when there was a box next to it.
Anyone know the cheapest price to buy RMC at?
uexcorp made it seem like RMC hauling would be profitable, but in practice it seems like im only making 1k per SCU
Does the Argo Tractor main beam not have any gimbal?
Watch Untitled and millions of other Star Citizen videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
cant buy anything
idk if its only me
its not
you have the issue too?
everyone
we just tried to boot up a fresh sserver but it didnt work
basically dont try to do cargo trading atm
so it can be fixed in new servers?
some people said maybe
dang
can i do hauling
or bugged too
cuz i cant find any of the things i need to get in warehouse
tf
Hauling is fixed
i sent the freight elevator up and i dont find any of the things, am i doing something wrong
Did you put it on the elevator first?
Yes, but you need to put it on the elevator before you call it up
From warehouse to elevator
arent i supposed to use the freight elevator, choose the things i need to get and sent the elevator back again
Yes that's what I'm asking 🙂
well guess what i dont find any of the things in the warehouse section
Is it the starter mission?
Mmmhhh weird, I haven't seen anyone complain about that bug anymore
Did you try multiple missions
I have come to the conclusion that the Argo Tractor is worth precisely fuckall at the moment. Handles like utter garbage, and the forward tractor doesn't even gimbal.
I think I'm done with cargo until they fix the fucking boxes clipping into your ship and instakilling it
Twice in an hour it's happened
hah
Like I have a choice
Have picked up some contracted cargo which was left by another player. Can I sell it? If so where ?
"left" 
600i is a great cargo ship 😉 I did 120 scu loose in the cargo bay and only got slightly crushed
Temporarily pinned to the wall by an aggressively jittinger 8 SCU box lol
Man its disappointing to read member level still doesnt have 16 scu boxes, im kinda tired of 8scu boxes and im so close to member rank
it might be if it had a cargo grid! its unfortunate that the rework isnt live yet 😦
Corsair is very good aswell to handle all that 8 Scu boxes from Hauling contracts. I could put 105 Scu off grid without a problem.
The Corsairs grid needs to be reworked imo they are wasting space
I hope they will add the possibility to choose the size of boxes. Had the last days a 23 Scu contracts but couldn’t fill a Nomad which has 24 scu space.
yess they mentioned theyd like to do this eventually
would be amazing if you can choose a ship and it chooses the most convenient box choice
as an option* maybe a paid option
Definitly, it would be even easier and faster.
Just noticed we matching in profile pics
different vibes but same thing
guys is cargo trading fixed
Define fixed
how do you enter the c1 tractor beam from the co pilot seat?
right hand side, right click on the physical button that gives you the "exit" prompt, after you've powered on the seat using the physical button in the centre console
ty
you'll be given an Enter Remote Turret option
i struggled with this yesterday as it's been a minute since I used it 😂
I like to map a button to enter remote turret 1/2/3. I just use dbl tap the #
this the one after member? u finally got 16scu boxes already or not yet? 
Yeah experienced has contracts with both 16 and 32 boxes
Does the MPUV fit in the front cargo hold of the Cat? 🤔
if only 
What’s the pay like

tbh honest i can only do one or two of these before my hand hurts, I prefer the local drops they pay up to 70k ish and usually 3 or 4 locations, they take about the same amount of time and you see some nice sights without getting carpel tunnel syndrome
this is my link-up mission I've tagged on for next at least these are 32s!
much better
You can share any contract, right? A friend and I plan on playing later today and I don't think he's done any hauling contracts yet
Excellent
Is that even worth the time for the payout
not really but I'm doing it for the experience/rep
I've just loaded up the second lot and on my way to EH now so I'm already 40 mins in
Will be an hour all in I guess, I can make 500k salvaging solo in my Vulture easy in the time
Are freight elevators still fucked or no
Occasionally but it's been very rare for me 2/100 maybe
Experienced isn’t Maxlevel yeah
LMAO I alt-tabbed back in and had 4 NPC shooting at me 😄

can't you just change server?
Tried 5 different servers last night, none of them worked
just finished it - exactly an hour
what's the issue exactly?
it's not just that you bought 32scu containers is it?
If I try to interact with the freight elevators the screen just infinitely says “Freight loading” or something
Yeah that sucks very hard… hope they gonna fix that soon
Yeah I’m kind of fucked till that’s fixed
Spent over 100k renting a ship too so I’m down half a million from that
Actualy i just do Hauling between stations, but even though sellings illegals stuff on scrap yards is very difficult
and that happens for all elevators on all servers? That's weird I've seen that a couple of times but it was only for that session
Most of them are buggy
I tried 5 different servers and all the elevators at the area with my cargo were bugged yes
First day coming back to the game and I got scammed
How have I completed almost 80 hauling missions then?
Brio, Samson, Devlin, arc corp 157, 141 and Shubin on Daymar
I guess it must just be that they're high traffic areas and that's what's causing them to fail?
Or players are deliberately sabataging them somehow
I really dont know, well i could too just avoiding those places, only doing orbital stations.
It can be
You trying planetary ones?
This is my theory
yeah I've had no issues at orbital stations, it just seems like those areas are getting high traffic or abused
The place with my cargo is on planet
Yes those are known to be bugged
Figured
Me neither just on the places i wrote above
That’d be useful info if I had the money to trade
I've been delivering to the HDMS ones on Hurston that's where I saw the issues when I did, but it was only a couple of times
I guess it's just the places that sell high value commodities
I’ll just have to wait 3 weeks for a patch ig
you can do other stuff?
Or orbital hauling 
I don’t particularly feel motivated to play currently
o7, how much now you earn for the high end cargo hauling contracts with the increased payouts ?
To add to this how much does the amount of cargo you need to transport change
Sorry for @
yup good question too
I can't recall what the highest paid ones were, somewhere between 30K to 45K, I don't remember seeing anything over 50K
The autoloading fees are static regardless of the type of cargo. So the 32 SCU will have the same fee regardless if loading scrap or gold.
IIRC, a C2 took me about 10 minutes to load/unload and about 20K autoload charge (mix of 32SCU and 2SCU crates)
I heard you could make 100k from some
That might be the 4000scu hauls for the Hull C that are bugged
➣ Fixed - PU - Shopping - Trading - Commodity Kiosk - Unable to sell Ores due to "Transaction cost mismatch error".
wait, autoloading is also available for cargo hauling ? I thought is was only for cargo trading
It does not work for hauling missions unless you are using a Hull C (which doesn't work separately anyways)
i remember getting really excited when i heard about the hull series
