Newcomer / Intro Missions what got the loot traveled and Can’t unload

[DeanoDuPlumb]

Ok four times I’ve traveled to and from these stations. And they are long and boring to get to and at first I though I’d cocked up the deal. But as I sit here I’ve got the biowaste in the hold and a can’t unload it to seal the deal. Sod this.

I don't understand the title of this thread.

Did you buy the biowaste instead of picking it up from the mission?

There are plenty of guides and tutorials out there to show you how to carry out a mission, just make sure they are not too old as the game mechanics changed over time.

Here, for example, is a video I made of a delivery mission, not got a polished presentation style but it shows how to do it:

BTW - if you see the destination station is a long distance from arrival (it is shown in the mission description) - don't take the mission if you don't want to spend the time travelling.

I'd say this is the issue.

When you accept the mission, you "pick up" the goods from the mission giver - it will show a bar with a + or - on it. You hold the + until all goods are collected and then click/press collect (or whatever it's called). This places the mission required goods to be loaded into your hold - this is a different scenario to buying them from the commodities market. Can be confusing at first!

Edit: which is all pretty much per Para Handy's vid
