Newcomer / Intro Why can't I deliver the cobalt?

- Start date
Did you get destroyed and have to go buy more cobalt? (You can't satisfy the mission with bought stuff.)
I ask 'cos your inventory doesn't say "mission" even though the source depot looks to have been emptied?

I got destroyed and bought the cobalt somewhere else, I don't have the cobalt from the mission giver.
Oh well, first failed mission then
In seven years of playing, nobody has yet been able to explain to me what is so special about 'that' cobalt 
But yes, that's the answer.

I gave you 7 tons of "cobalt" to deliver. The drugs inside them were irreplaceable.In seven years of playing, nobody has yet been able to explain to me what is so special about 'that' cobalt
part of the job is to protect the cargo and then get it delivered.
you failed step 1, can't get to step 2
in a real world contract, acceptable but you never get hired again.
failure to complete, failure to understand.
on another related note, who did you help by doubling the cost of the cargo or by substituting the original cargo for more expensive cargo?
the pirates were successful.
you and the mission provider were not.

I would try to get a mission at the destination
a mission to provide or mine cobalt
one of the things about missions is that they often lead you to a place that needs your help
that failed mission has led to a place that wants cobalt
that is a good thing, they are good missions and it is a good item to trade
and they are usually plentiful.

Specialized delivery items are normally stamped with information that makes them "unsellable" in the general market. Those particular items were probably individualized with something like: " Happy Birthday, Memaw! Glad you made it to your Cobalt birthday! Hope you make another 150 years of age! Love, your Great, Great, Great Grandkids!"In seven years of playing, nobody has yet been able to explain to me what is so special about 'that' cobalt
If I live to 150, I want a T-Shirt that says 'I reached 150 and all I got was this lousy cobalt!'Specialized delivery items are normally stamped with information that makes them "unsellable" in the general market.
