Newcomer / Intro Delivery mission cargo?

[tclancey]

I might be going mad, and I thought I posted this yesterday but can't find it.

Delivery missions, when accepted used to place the mission cargo in your hold? Or am I imagining this?

Otherwise they're just a source and return mission with a different destination.

Maybe it was just a data delivery?
Or you've mis-read it and it was a sourcing mission?

Naturally, it's just after an update. A simple bug is also a possibility.

Nope, definitely delivery missions, 180 and 56 Basic Medicines, from Sirius to Epsilon Indi.

Buying the stuff doesn't help, you can't deliver it at the destination. Missions say "These goods are unique...."

The new delivery system has been opened out to all cargo missions I gather, so they've not tested delivery missions at all. Great QC!

 

[Factabulous]

They changed. Took about 5 minutes to work out. Good luck!

Move the slider to load the goods, just like handing in supply missions.
Means you can now do deliveries in multiple trips.

 

[Chris Simon]

Ah, so that's how it works, now.
It'll save me time fiddling around it myself when I get back to the bubble. Thanks.

You have to load the goods now - they are not automatically placed in your cargo hold. This way, you can accept missions with more items than your hold capacity and make multiple runs to complete. You should be able to click on the mission then add the cargo via the + slider.

It's a bit like the self-service till at the supermarket now. Instead of having the station employees load the cargo for you, they've made them all redundant and you now have to do it yourself. The ex-employees now have to resort to piracy to feed their families, at which point you will likely blow them up and hand in their bounties for a shiny new ship part.

It's a funny old galaxy.
