one day when elite dangerous devs and star citizen devs (- robert) start working together

we're going to get an amazing space sim

lusty cypress
#

oh 100%

#

when will food van gameplay come out

maiden steppe
#

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?

tidal field
#

so you'll just have people dying everywhere of starvation kekW

lusty cypress
#

and its not a cargo ship, its an 'explorer'

buoyant pewter
#

is hauling still broken

mild pumice
#

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

silent cargo
#

best thing to be running rn?

sharp swift
#

I logged off for the night and the message was gone in the morning

frosty sentinel
tidal field
#

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

#

If I knew how to leave it afterwards I would attempt that kekW

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? 😂

cinder tulip
#

Can anyone confirm if the Hull-C can sell at Orison this patch? I've been hearing different things in Global chat.

sharp swift
#

Then you stick to Lagrange point contracts, staying away from Planet or Station contracts

lyric tusk
#

Ok so pretty much just stay away from cargo 😂

#

Literally the one reason I wanted to play 3.24

knotty dove

cinder tulip
#

Are there any Hull-C routes worth it in 3.24?

#

Outside of the usual Hulll C issues ofc

lyric tusk
#

Guess I will just have to reach out to a friend that already has it done

# knotty dove

oh wow, I'd have thought that the pyro/terra ones would be on there. Thanks!

knotty dove

#

Always wanted to give it a go though, so I reckon I'll try it.

Looks like Heph from Pyro is a cheaper tho

# knotty dove

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.

wheat moss
inner summit
#

it only functions in that mode and should have tractor beam UI show up when changed to it.

civic epoch
#

Use the MPUV-t daily. It works like a champ. SCM Mode -> "M" -> Then triger to enable.

primal rapids
#

I heard the cargo glitch only happens to initial missions, so does that mean other people are able to do cargo missions like normal?

coarse ember
#

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

primal rapids
#

sick

primal rapids
tall karma
#

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

round lintel
#

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

eternal vapor
#

what is the best commodity to sell, currently been doing beryl, is there something else i should be selling instead?

rigid elk
#

hi guys how do i fill up a cat? what size scus do i need to order

clever geyser
#

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?

nova plank
clever geyser
#

but they they me buy them? thats a scam

nova plank
#

Welcome to 3.24... It's been a known bug since PTU.

#

Supposively they patched it, but i'm guessing not

clever geyser
#

so can i call them up somewhere else or convert them to 24scu or am i just out the money?

nova plank
#

you can sell them, then rebuy 24SCU.. But yeah you'll be out a little money

clever geyser
#

they say can not sell. well that sucks, thanks for the info

The outposts took a page out of Chris Roberts selling jpegs

is there a way to combine scu boxes, vulture is annoying.

#

yo they fixed cargo?

coarse ember
#

station missions seem to be working fine for me now, just picked up 96scu of quartz to delivery from everus

inland pine
#

Where can I sell small quantities of gems now? Apparently you can only sell 1 SCU or more at commodity terminals now?

#

Mining facilities?

wheat moss
#

gotta wait for a fix or sell your gem 1 per 1

fierce grove
#

The hauling missions seem to be fixed... gonna have to check the commodity elevators to see if they managed to fix that

inland pine
wheat moss
#

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

inland pine
#

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

wheat moss
#

I think the roc only mines gems

inland pine
#

great

wheat moss
#

you can store your gems tough for now

#

and sell them once it's working better

#

Also if you try it ship mining works

tall karma
#

Im pretty sure there is a trick to sell the contents of an SCU box all at once.

wheat moss
fierce grove
#

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

tall karma
#

Well, I at least got my intro to hauling mission done and unlocked the rookie ranks.

novel urchin
#

is there anyway to pull a 32s containers out of outposts freight elevators?

spare cloud
#

Nope

#

Outposts can't use 32 SCU containers, it's meant that way

neon obsidian
#

is hauling working better now ? 😮

topaz wasp
#

what's the max scu I could fit in my c1 including off grid cargo

mild pumice
#

5 missions, same locations all loaded up (5 different commodities so I can tell them apart) - wish me luck!

mild pumice
#

first drop done it now shows all the orders you have on the grid:

hollow latch
#

how do you pull cargo closer to you in the taurus tractor beam? i assumed it was mousewheel but that's not doing anything

mild pumice
#

I wrote out a little cheat sheet how much to each location lol

stable comet
#

Any fix for the 32scu crates stuck at outposts ?

spare cloud
#

Remove them and abandon them

#

Outposts aren't meant to take 32 SCU containers

mild pumice
#

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

river oasis
#

Real quick, should I keep the M7A on the C2 or downsize them to get gimbals?

wet aurora
mild pumice
#

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

wet aurora
#

yeah true I had that too

mild pumice
#

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

lime vessel
#

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,,

spring copper
spring copper
#

this is a screenshot from earlier in the week

lime vessel
#

oh ok gotcha.. thx

spring copper
#

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 😄

lime vessel
#

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..

inner summit
#

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 🙂

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

spring copper
mild pumice
#

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

spring copper
#

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?

I'm loading in and have tons on Orison if you want. I think I'll be at the habs there

how do you sell at brio's? i put my stuff on the elevator but the terminal just said "loading contents" forever

near flower
#

theres an auto loading feature

#

what about auto unloading?

wheat moss
spare cloud
#

There is too

#

As long as you're in a city or station

near flower
#

how to access?

#

if im in a hauling mission does it work?

wheat moss
#

No

#

During hauling you are responsible for loading and unloading

near flower
#

damn

wheat moss
#

The auto features only works for commodities

near flower
#

what about when trading, is there still like a stock problem? like stuff runs out so easily

tardy umbra
#

Hey, having fun now that the hauling missions actually work

coral shale
mild pumice
#

@coral shale sounds like the lift is broken, try to switch server. Note maximum box size is 16scu I believe

coral shale
mild pumice
#

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.

coral shale
#

Also how does one sell a 32 scu box of weevil eggs if they happen upon one?

mild pumice
#

Perhaps players have sabotage it by throwing stuff down?

mild pumice
coral shale
mild pumice
#

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

lime vessel
mild pumice
#

@lime vessel no your ship needs to be stored to use auto loading/unloading.

lime vessel
#

ok so the ship isn´t available anymore on the terminal

mild pumice
#

Only when it's stored at the location, so scrapyard and outposts are manual loading/unloading only

lime vessel
#

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 .😩

iron mirage
#

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

tall karma
#

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

lime vessel
tall karma
#

It would make sense if there was not enough demand, but I think it says they have 36SCU of available demand.

lime vessel
#

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..

brittle kraken
#

Anyone know the kinda payouts you get for the highest level hauling missions?

slim walrus
#

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"

slim walrus
wheat moss
#

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 ?

slim walrus
wheat moss
#

if you want to trade something now it generally has to go trough the elevator

rigid elk
#

how do i work the auto loading? do i have to call my ship up first for it to start loading

wheat moss
#

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

rigid elk
#

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

coral flume
#

I'm getting insufficient stock at the TDD. What am I doing wrong?

do that next time

its not in teh warehouse

#

did i just lose all my money

wheat moss
#

did the money got deducted ?

rigid elk
#

yea

wheat moss
#

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 :/

mild pumice
#

right stacked 6 this time lol, this could be interesting!

drowsy phoenix
#

Did the auto load / unload not make it in?

wheat moss
#

did it made it in the update ? yes

Did it made it in the update alive ? no

#

sometimes it work, sometimes not

drowsy phoenix
#

where do you do it?

wheat moss
#

wdym ?

drowsy phoenix
#

I've stored the vehicle, but I don't see any option to have it unloaded for me

wheat moss
#

are you selling or doing hauling contracts ?

drowsy phoenix
#

hauling contracts

coarse ember
#

hauling contracts wont let you autoload

#

it's all manual

wheat moss
#

You are responsible for loading and unloading crates from contracts

drowsy phoenix
#

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 😦

coarse ember
#

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

Just over an hour LOL

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

humble merlin
#

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

lapis veldt
#

Is the ability to have cargo auto loaded to the ship limited to Store Terminals? Or can we do that from the Hangar somehow?

mild pumice
#

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

ur hangar now has a freight elevator

leaden wasp

how do i buy the titanium tho

whole nebula
#

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

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

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

Experienced definitely has much better solar and interstellar loops. Member was somewhat lacking in variety!

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?

distant tiger
#

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)

limpid sluice
#

Not sure if there's a way to force it to update that's easier

distant tiger
#

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 ?

limpid sluice
#

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.

stable comet
#

Anyone have issues with crates randomly disappearing when unloading with tractor from the raft ? It's wrecking my profits

sharp swift
#

Your RAFT tractor beam works?

stable comet
#

No I mean with handheld beam

sharp swift
#

No but I do wish the elevator would default to lower deck <-> exit ship

slate spruce
#

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.

inner summit
#

What is the cheapest commodity I can buy 32 SCU containers of? Looking to stock up on containers.

digital echo
#

scrap, probably. Or waste, but same idea.

#

Why are you trying to stock up on just containers?

inner summit
#

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

sharp swift
#

Guess lorville elevators are still broken

#

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

Is this a list of NQA terminal locations?

There's two

#

CRU L4, and the other CRU L5 maybe ?

near swallow
#

Yeah, CRU-L4 and L5.

#

And they may actually have fixed the internal elevators at L5.

sharp swift
#

Well, I guess I'm going on an adventure

#

Do I land at a normal pad?

spare cloud
#

You call ATC like usual

drowsy phoenix
#

What do I do if the hanger ATC keeps assigning me already has a ship in it

spare cloud
#

I'd go in kekw

coarse ember
#

Simply crush the other ship under the weight of your cargo umm

near swallow
#

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.

drowsy phoenix
#

no.. it's the one they assinged me

#

can someone come tractor it out of the hanger?

You'll pay the fine, you're not 40k short

#

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

sharp swift
#

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

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)

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

sharp swift
#

This has been like a 3-4 hour JOURNEY trying to sell all this and my mining cargo

sharp swift
#

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

drowsy phoenix
#

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

spare cloud
#

RMC can only be sold in TDDs

digital echo
#

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.

sharp swift
#

That may be the single outlier from the norm

spare cloud
sharp swift
#

For like 11k/SCU which kinda sucks cause I gave the guy 14k/SCU thinking it was gonna be easy to sell it normally

#

is there an issue council post for that already?

Did they fix the hauling missions not showing cargo in elevators yet?

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

mild pumice
#

All mine have delivered the boxes fine?

#

same

slim walrus
#

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

wheat moss
#

No

mild pumice
#

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)

patent valve
#

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?

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?

yes

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

warm totem

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

mild pumice
#

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

humble merlin
#

How do you do auto-loading?

blazing trout
#

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

mild pumice
# humble merlin How do you do auto-loading?

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

spare cloud
#

A2 for 216 SCU kekw

#

Or Starfarer kekl

#

Big ass ships

#

And Starfarer is so weak

blazing trout
#

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

topaz wasp
#

is there a way to merge smaller boxes into larger ones

#

having to load 64 1 scu boxes into my c1 is a pain

mild pumice
#

for commodity cargo yes, you can put them inside 8scu storeall boxes however not for mission cargo it cannot be stored in them

topaz wasp
mild pumice
#

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

topaz wasp
#

do I keep the 8 scu box once I've sold or is the price of the 8 scu box included in the sale?

mild pumice
#

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

topaz wasp
#

Yea i'll give it a go later, thanks for help 😃

mild pumice
#

yw

sharp swift
#

Do you get more rep for doing the higher level contracts?

mild pumice
#

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

sharp swift
#

Good to know, so stacking small missions can yield more rep per run

mild pumice
#

Yeah 1 sec;

#

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

brittle kraken
tall karma
#

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.

cargo capacity

tall karma
#

Probably the Taurus

#

Dont think they made any hercules available for rental

copper elk
#

its bigger than a C1?

tall karma
#

Yes, it has 174SCU capacity

copper elk
tall karma
#

Its also extremely good for cargo since it has a manned tractor turret that works very well - much better than the C1

copper elk
#

i see

leaden monolith
#

168scu of usable capacity as the other 4 is in that shielded section and really not all that useful.

digital echo
#

And hard to get to, tbh. Especially when tractoring boxes.

leaden monolith
#

hmm I think my maths was off there

tall karma
#

Well, you can definitely sprinkle more cargo inside easily enough if you really want to load it to the max - off grid

copper elk
#

damn i checked and its very expensive

#

something less?

digital echo
#

You can put another 32 SCU box on top, and it slots in once the cargo elevator goes up.

tall karma
#

Freelancer Max is probably your next best option

copper elk
digital echo
#

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.

copper elk
#

but how much space?

#

has?

tall karma
#

120 I think

copper elk
#

ok

strong sable
digital echo
#

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?

Afaik, it gets almost maxed out on 8 scu boxes capacity by the 100 scu medium missions

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

#

raft is outside cargo?

digital echo
copper elk
#

how can you put multiple small boxes in it then?

wheat moss
#

On the sides yeah

copper elk
#

they just stick? they dont need to be the right size?

digital echo
copper elk
#

same price as taurus at this point lol

tall karma
#

How much cargo space do you need?

copper elk
#

as much as possible

#

no requirements

#

we have a C1

#

would be nicer for cheap to get more space

tall karma
#

For why? If you're hauling commodities and not doing hauling missions you'll earn more than the daily rental with a Taurus.

digital echo
#

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.

copper elk
#

we are using the C1 for now

tall karma
#

Just stick with the C1 until you need more than 96SCU of space since the C1 can comfortably fit 96 with 32 off grid.

digital echo
#

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.

copper elk
tall karma
#

Just use a tractor beam to move it out of the way

digital echo
#

You don't. You use the ship tractor to load it and unload it, then leave the copilot's seat.

copper elk
#

we actually never used the ship tracotr

#

damn

Technically never have to leave the ship if parked properly - assuming the elevator is raised.

After contacting cargo services/station it puts a box for the transfer, but won’t begin

mild pumice

  1. deliver ship
  2. buy commodity at admin terminal
  3. retrieve ship
  4. request cargo ATC
  5. fly into blue square 🟦 (make sure you open the spindles alt+k)
  6. go make a coffee
  7. once loaded fly to wherever you want to sell at
  8. dock (or EVA via pad>elevator)
  9. go to admin office>create sell order
  10. return to ship and request cargo ATC
  11. fly into blue box
  12. profit
  13. alt-F4 never play again

What are the best commodities to trade at the moment

mild pumice
#

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...

blazing trout
#

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?

mild pumice
#

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

blazing trout
#

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)

mild pumice
#

Yeah I'll test it out next time the opportunity arise

blazing trout
#

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

mild pumice
blazing trout
#

Yeah, same. Going back and forth on a few stations only focusing on 1 mission at a time (2-3 runs into Experienced too) 🙂

mild pumice
#

I'm mostly doing the local runs in my C1 I also tested the Nomad earlier which was surprisingly good little pickup truck!

brittle kraken
mild pumice
#

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

blazing trout
mild pumice
#

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

blazing trout
#

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

mild pumice
#

These will be <4

#

I like it cos I can just use the smol multi tool

blazing trout
#

Maxlift one is pretty great though, the range is far, but I guess the multi tool is a little more agile on small boxes

tall karma
#

I miss my Taurus. Hope the hotfix solves the claim unavailable issue

blazing trout
# blazing trout

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

mild pumice
#

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 🙂

By default?

ill try that

#

thank you

hot anvil
#

is there a workaround yet for the loading content bug

pallid marten
#

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

dull crater
#

Its not the speed thats the issue, its having to scroll 100x lol

mild pumice
#

yeah same I will have to take some breaks as I have bad hands

hot anvil
pallid marten
#

thats what i see

hot anvil
#

is yur ship stored? it needs to be

pallid marten
#

Its in hangar yes

hot anvil
#

like put it away

#

lowered, stored at terminal from hanger

pallid marten
mild pumice
#

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

hot anvil
#

same way you summon your ship you put it away

mild pumice
#

there's a freight elevator in every hangar yes where you can call your cargo

pallid marten
#

yes but i wanna do it through the commodities thinbg

#

thing*

pallid marten
#

terminal*

hot anvil
#

so store your ship from the fleet manager terminal, only then can you autoload cargo

mild pumice

#

Has anyone maxed out their rep for hauling? Wondering what the highest/max SCU shipment is

short swallow
#

from the ptu, probably the same now

wheat moss
#

2k scu for 80k I saw in chat

short swallow
#

really easy money once hull c works

#

literally just cargo deck > cargo deck

wheat moss
#

If only upping your rep wasn't harder than lowering it tough Ami_nonono

sharp swift
#

How do you tell the game to 'only take this many please'?

wheat moss
#

Only take this many?

sharp swift
#

Like from the above example, only delivering 762 SCU to one place

#

via the cargo deck

mild pumice
#

There's already 4000scu delivery missions with Experienced Rank (for Hull C)

tall karma
#

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?

pallid marten
#

i just did a cargo i bought 24 scu of copper and an error appeared and my money is now fucking gone

tall karma
#

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.

pallid marten
#

this is dumb af

After your money was taken, of course. As though maybe the transaction succeeded and you now have 24SCU of copper in your warehouse.

pallid marten
#

if i rejoin

tall karma
#

Assuming you are familiar with the new cargo elevator system that stores all your cargo.

pallid marten
#

could it be there

tall karma
#

If the sale was successful it would still be in your inventory.

tall karma
#

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.

pallid marten
#

alr

mild pumice
tall karma
#

Could you feasibly load it manually through the hangar by pulling 1024 SCU at a time and using a shuttle system?

mild pumice
#

It would take too long to be economical

tall karma
#

Its just 125 32scu boxes.

mild pumice
#

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

tall karma
# pallid marten nothing in warehouse

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!

tall karma
#

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.

amber knot
tall karma
#

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.

mild pumice
#

I sold my Vulture salvage earlier, that worked thankfully, I'd unloaded it manually of course

tall karma
#

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.

mild pumice
#

Wonder of its worth collecting all the abandoned mission cargo from DCs and running it to Hex lol.

tall karma
#

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.

mild pumice
#

True, was more for the lolz tbh

#

I'm still working my way through the hauling ranks, about halfway through experienced...

tall karma
#

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.

pallid marten
#

i cant buy anything

mild pumice
#

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

near swallow
#

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.

tacit bone
#

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?

its not

everyone

we just tried to boot up a fresh sserver but it didnt work

#

basically dont try to do cargo trading atm

pallid marten
#

so it can be fixed in new servers?

some people said maybe

pallid marten
#

dang

or bugged too

cuz i cant find any of the things i need to get in warehouse

Did you put it on the elevator first?

pallid marten
#

no i mean i started the mission

#

and i gotta deliver

wheat moss
#

Yes, but you need to put it on the elevator before you call it up

#

From warehouse to elevator

pallid marten

Yes that's what I'm asking 🙂

pallid marten

#

Is it the starter mission?

pallid marten
#

no

rookie rank

wheat moss
#

Mmmhhh weird, I haven't seen anyone complain about that bug anymore

#

Did you try multiple missions

frail roost
#

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.

whats the best cargo route?

#

i have a c2

humble merlin
#

Is there a way to turn off all these markers?

#

They make it hard to tetris

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" hahhhhh

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

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

outer ridge

they need to do something about this asap for sure

#

hurting hands aint a good sign

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

yes u can!

almost any contract

the generic ones for sure

Excellent

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

Brio, Samson, Devlin, arc corp 157, 141 and Shubin on Daymar

mild pumice

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

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

you can do other stuff?

o7, how much now you earn for the high end cargo hauling contracts with the increased payouts ?

brave lark
#

Sorry for @

north oyster
#

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)

brave lark
#

I heard you could make 100k from some

tall karma

That might be the 4000scu hauls for the Hull C that are bugged
