I should name my Fleet Carrier Hotel California

[GraXXoR]

... because I've loaded it up with thousands of tonnes of Platinum only to be unable to unload it again at the CG system.
Every time I try to transfer some Platinum to my ship, I get a $ sign and an Exclamation mark after a 10 second timeout and my goods teleport back to the Fleet Carrier

What the hell is the point of having a cargo hold if you can't unload anything from it? Come on FDEV, this is pretty fundamental stuff!

Try to move 100-190 tons at a time, just turned in 2500 tons taking 712 tons per trip.
Just transfer in smaller bits form carrier to ship till your ship is full.

Does make you wonder...

Members like @Scoob, in particular, have been moaning about this issue for months, and almost everybody's experienced some kind of issue while trying to move stuff from an FC to a ship.

FDev gave us FCs with the obvious intention that we can shuttle cargo to them, stock up and then jump to a different system to offload.
They then create a CG where this ability is hugely significant.
....while knowing there's a problem with swapping cargo between FCs and ships.

Ah, well...
At least when it happens during a CG there'll be a heap of people moaning about it instead of just one or two.
Maybe FDev will pay attention and get it fixed now?

I was able to do it if I kept the amount less than 60T at a time.

As soon as I went over 60T it borked.

Over 7000T delivered. Ranked from Elite through I and II to Elite III

My fingers ache from all the joystick key pressing…
