No one. Only full-ship-of - things may prevent boarding. u need to drop out something.

Never seen that one myself.

Thanks - how many of each item is it advisable to keep...?

U have 1000 limit for each of 3 category. ...and 1000 limit for each consumable, that message may pop after combat zone too, as u collect there medpacks etc which are above limit.

Thanks - is there an upper limit for individual items, beyond which it is useless to keep 'em...?

For goods, it's hard to fill that up. Data is also hard to fill up but less so. Really you want to plan ahead for the engineering mods you want to do, the most a mod uses is generally 15, so multiples of 15 of what you might think you need. More than that and you risk holding onto useless stuff. Assets are the real hassle, you need lots of them and you will run out of space quickly enough for it to be an inconvenience. The most you will use for an upgrade is 35. For a consecutive G4 and G5 upgrade you're looking at 60 total, so 120 is 2 lots of the max upgrade of a suit/weapon. I keep graphene at 120 max (cos that's used for all the armors) but everything else I don't hold more than 60 of. Most likely 20 or 30, but again, depends on what you think you need for engineering.

No - I meant individual items, as Metatheurgist dealt with in his reply (Thanks!)

To expand on this, if you're getting most of your assets from looting settlement lockers, you will get far more materials from the Circuits category than either Chemicals or Tech. So not only does your assets bucket tend to fill up, but you tend to fill up on just one subcategory that you can't cross-trade to something more useful. You can reduce numbers by trading up, but generally various goods or data are going to be the limiting factor to your upgrades. So my advice would be, once you start bumping up against the asset cap, just stop picking up Circuit materials, as they're probably what's filling up your inventory.
