A couple more things about Carriers

[JBR]

These have got to have been talked about already but 1) scheduling multiple jumps so I don't have to baby sit the carrier for hours on end, at least as far as the Tritium in the tank will allow and 2) Some way to transfer Tritium from storage to the tank via the carrier management screen. The fact that I have to switch ships to a larger one with more storage (If I used my AE it would take literally all day) just to load Tritium from storage then exit that screen to enter the Tritium deposit screen, deposit the Tritium, go back to storage screen for another load, back to the Tritium deposit screen, etc, etc. . .

I know it's useless to bring it up here but I just wanted to vent. I just spent most of the day limping 7,000lys back to my carrier (got careless and bounced off a star or at least it seemed to bounce LOL) when I couldn't jump it any closer to me.

For what it is worth I 100% agree. Fdev is so odd with it's half baked features that never get updates, in my opinion

I don’t have a carrier anymore (had one on PS4, need to earn another 2 billion on my PC account …) but I 100% agree, especially on the ”transfer fuel from storage” front. It took me ages to figure to figure out how to do it and it’s just stupid to have to go via a ship.

Yes. These have been requested numerous times.

Despite numerous threads and players requesting them we still don't have them, so I am expecting these are things FDEV don't want players to have and no amount of requesting them will change that.

Why implement a feature if the lack of it makes more money?
I bought an alt-account (on sale) to just sit on the carrier in a T-9 for those emergencies where I might need picking up beyond its fuel tank range. I don't really expect to need it, though,

Sharing command of a carrier with squad members, that would be lovely.
On long voyages, I sometimes set jumps via Geforce Now on a phone. It mostly works.

Same, but it was the free Epic accounts. Worse part of that method is that with your alts, however many you may or may not have have, having full holds of Tritium, parked on your FC, frees up cargo space for other things and does not count towards your max tonnage. So, a workaround for a, glaring by it's omission, missing feature, unfrtunately can easily be used as an exploit. FC full of trade goods and multiple T9s with holds full of cargo and/or tritium to donate.
