To all those who have a second account, have you realized that you *kind of* already have cargo storage?

[Altair8800]

God yes, I'd love to have another 600 materials storage, the amount I've thrown away!

In some other games after a while they faced the problem, that 2/3 of the accounts were not played but just used as storage mule, to keep every crap one possibly could find, tee hee. That of course caused problems with the server farm, that has to store all the huge collected piles of stuff never ever used for any gameplay. That resulted in some restrictions, like you had to play each character for an hour per month, or it would expire together with all the stored crap.

It was not great fun to go though all my accounts and login every character for an hour every now and then, just to make sure it won't expire.

Be carefull what you wish for, it could become true, but then with consequences you're not thinking about yet.

If you have a trading python, it's only a couple of hours to trading T9

I have the Python for my second commander and intended to do exactly this. Then 1.6 dropped and I decided a Low spec T-9 would be scary, especially when I'm running both accounts in parallel (Desktop and Laptop) so I just upgraded the Python to max.

Haha, would I ever need to store 570 tonnes of stuff? Hmm, food for thought.

There's no such thing as "too much cargo space"

Yeah, I would never leave the station in E-rated T9

What's the hurry? Why do you need to transfer stuff from one account to the other? Play the game and it will come in time. You might even have fun doing it.

You seem to be rushing things, but why? There is no end game, there is no finale banner with fireworks, or "you win" screen. Materials (and credits) are all over the place.

It's not the destination, it's the journey.

Haha, there's always one of you dudes on every thread, but you can't change the mentality of a natural goal oriented min/maxer like me ;-) I have 10 ships I want to upgrade in various ways and I don't want to throw away all the materials between each one and some of them will have their jump range killed by the need to carry cargo. The new PVP meta isn't going to make its self ;-)

I already have two A4s filled with lists of things for every ship I need to tweak, all with materials quantities and priorities. It's a meta-game in its own way.

Spreadsheets and a second screen are the gaming hoarder/completionists friend

I am no hoarder. But that means all the more that I need to keep things organized. I will never have tons of everything to randomly spend on experimenting.

When playing X-3, I sometimes spent more time in my construction spreadsheets than I did in the actual game. Same when I was Min/Maxing my Skyrim characters.
