Were people really expecting well in excess of around 1200? Colour me unsurprised that expectations had no bearing in reality once again...

1200-1400 is double all but the most optimised current fits, and colonisation was never meant to be a "one run and your done" thing. That's just 8 runs for a solo outpost. What next? A titan[1] should go down in a 30 minute session?

Titan bombing is at least fun to do over and over again. also, wanting to reduce the 40-60 runs some constructions projects have to a more manageable 20-30 isn't a "one and done". But hauling the same commodity for days on end, then move onto the next huge pile gets very grindy after a while. There are "The big five" commodities that are tens of thousands in amounts EACH, taking anywhere from 40-60 runs EACH to complete. So on average 250 runs just for FIVE commodities. the rest of any given project is settled out anywhere from 5-10, but they generally account for about 10% of total construction of the megaproject. the remaining 90% from "The Big Five"

If you check out my one and only system, I have developed the heck out of it. So I'm no stranger to the grind, all I'm asking for is a little relief, not easy mode.

They clearly said, 1 size 7 and 1 size 8 can take the new modules. It is the lower number, and it still makes the Panther mk2 the highest capacity ship by a large margin.

I don't think you were really the target of my comment... that reduction is exactly what you're going to get right? 1200-1400t is about twice the amount of current haulage, so your 40-60 will become 20-30. I think that's fine.

But some seem to think this doesn't even come close to expectations...

Everybody's idea of fun is different. That's why you have games like Fortnite and European Truck Simulator. So, here you can play both ends of the spectrum, but you don't have to. What are all these complaints about activities someone doesn't enjoy when there are other things in the same VR which they like? I don't get it. I go where I am entertained and I don't go where I'm not.

Oh ok, nm then.
in regards to your question, the difference would be 1430 would be about 5-7 runs each less than 1238. so 25-35 runs less for the "big five" total
