Seeking luxuries ship robbed me

Innigo · Jan 24, 2015

Just sold 44 tonnes of cargo to one of those seeking luxury ships, which cheerfully told me I'd recieved 271,000 credits, but the money never made it to my account. Anyone else had this problem with any trades. Luxury seekers or otherwise.

Ticketed it.

Sorry to hear about your missing money. I've never actually traded with one of the Seeking Luxury ships. Mind letting me know what type of goods they take and what the process is?

Performance enhancers. Fly up close to the ships and they get magically sucked out of your cargo bay

Not hugely bummed about it. Felt like an exploit anyway as the station that sold the performace enhancers was only 0.83ls away and I did do quite a few runs before the glitch hit.

... but it seems to be deliberate from FD - I am spamming one now, and there always seems to be a source of the Perf enh in the system

agreed - i've seen this a lot. there's a small bug which means the money doesn't immediatley appear, but if you pop to a station you'll see it fixes itself.

Just relogged and the moolah showed up.

Phew !!!

I lost about 800Kcr to this and they did not come back after logging out and back in. I raised a ticket but have not heard anything.

The Seeking Luxuries have now changed to Conflict zones in the system I was using.

The problem seems to occur when you fly close to 2 ships and they say they paid you twice in quick succession. The money does return at the station as said above.
