It's the new grind...
Thanks for the tip. Only 37 seconds with keyboard.
Not looking forward to doing Op Ida runs in my shieldless Cutter on ps4 then. So that'll be the full 7 minutes for 796t of cargo if the OP is correct.
That was on PC, holding the + button with the mouse. Was faster using the keyboard, as Riverside mentioned. I don't know how long it will take you on PS4. Good luck!
That would be a good way to use that 6 minutes.
I'm glad I'm not doing any trading at the moment. I believe this is on the list of items that FD are intending to fix in the next patch (which should be in a week or two, I think I read).
Can't you watch Netflix or something?
I think this was mentioned on Frontier's issue list of things they were going to be working on. I'm certainly not looking forward to nearly 15 minutes of just moving things in and out of my hold for the next couple of weeks (assuming time to sell is the same as time to buy). I'll test it anyway when I get in game to see if it's different on consoles.
Good thing I've just fitted Pacifiers to my Cutter and there's plenty of fun to be had testing them.

Another reason why the Cobra is better.
That is what beta testing is designed to...oh, never mind.
LOL, I love that you timed it...for both mouse and keyboard.
My main game activity is trading, but I've opted to give it a rest and work on combat ranking until they fix the issue. Having a lot of fun actually, seeing as I had done so little combat previously.

Yeah, I never did much straight trading because I never liked having to utilize 21st century tech (internet) to find routes. So thought I'd give the new trading system a shot to take a break from combat (just made Master), but didn't realize there was an issue with adding/subtracting large amounts of cargo. Not sure how that slipped by them. Anyway the keyboard method is a decent workaround for now. Happy hunting.
Well, the keyboard method (A and D) seems to be pretty quick, but still not like pre-update. Not sure about console players.
Ok, it's a minute and a half to fill and empty 794t on PS4. Assuming XBone is the same this still a nuisance, but not completely ridiculous. As I've said on another thread, a 'fill hold' and 'sell all' button would make sense with this speed.
To put this in context, 1 min 30s would result half an hour of gameplay per week filling and emptying my hold when I'm hauling for station repairs.

Personally think a fill all and sell all button would be nice, even if we get the previous speed back.
For selling, doesn't it start with "all" now though, so sorta we have the sell all already, just not a button for it if you change where it starts and then change your mind.
I've literally done 0 trading since the patch.

At the moment when selling you start at zero and work up. I'm fed up after 2 runs. There's going to be some grumpy traders out there.
I'm half way through a bottle of wine, so there is a very good chance I've missed something though.
