This is why we NEED to have Pledge item recovery (which is already over a year late) working for 3.24. When all the 1-off hangar decorations have been placed and then suddenly disappear, fall through the floor, don't recognize me as the owner, etc. We NEED a way to recover them so we can put them back in our personal hangars.

Since having your personal hangar means CIG can sell you more crap to put in it, you'd think this would be a bit more of a priority. 😆 Right now when I see the subscriber flair being crap you can lose instantly for no good reason, it makes me not want to give them $10 or $20.

On the one hand loading your whole ship on foot with the tractor beams just seems the easiest and fastest way but on the other hand this seem rather silly.

For everyone this is the cargo patch, for me it's the '' begining of actual salvage '' patch! I always seen salvage as much more than scraping wrecks. It was always more about fiding a ship, stripping it of it's components and guns, it's loot, and then either towing it back to refurbish or scrape it. Even if we are not quite there, this patch will allow us to actually take things like components and guns, store them at our Persistant hangar and even recall them to sell them to players at a later date.

The more I see them add in stuff that could be neat, the more I look forward to the inevitable collapse and as much as I hate saying it....EA or Activision buy them out for cheap and give it to a studio to make it an actual game thats not a niche within a niche...OR it is just shut off and with AI plus other engines out there and the meshing tech growing and be a norm, somebody comes in and remakes the game as playable in half the time and just as good with far better performance.

There is going to be one issue with persistent hangers, how many people will actually really be using them more then a time or 2? How many people won't just load up all their gear onto one ship and head off to their space station of choice, be it a refinery, LEO, or Grim Hex, and set up shop there? CIG should enable us to set our starting locations at at least the 7 stations with Cargo Decks, as well as GH, so we can actually make use of these persistent hangers so we can more actively test them, with the location dependent size limitation of available hangers (you can't get the super large hanger at a LEO station so you will be given the smallest necessary to still fit the next largest ship in your web hanger)

Thanks for your feedback. Just more tools or vehicles to manage cargo. And update update on caterpillar could help.

With all the cargo we all lost so far i wonder why i should risk transporting my items like this. Now we have the option not just to loose our freight due to a disconnect or crash but even more important stuff... Before there is a system in place that works to prevent us from loosing everything due to a technical issue - no way i will use this transport feature. The personal hangars are great - now we just need a working rule set for players in a Party / Org. and the ability to expand those rules to ships so friends can take full control of others ships for selling/buying goods, refine mined ores etc. ... would be great - likely will never come since this would plummet ship sales.

The best use for hover trollies that I can see will be for loading/offloading a handful of odds and ends from ships with less accessible cargo grids. For instance, getting 12 various guns or components from a C2, as a single player, it will be much faster to take the trolley into the C2, snap the components to the trolley, and bring the trolley back to the freight elevator.

I would like to see an increase to the sale price of items based upon this delay in their unloading. If I have to wait an additional few hours just to unload my ship, all while I could've been using it to do another few runs, I'd like that price made up for at least a bit. They've already made the ships more expensive, the missions less profitable, salvage being less profitable, and cargo running is more dangerous now than ever due to the piracy threat. I mean, it's like the IRL inflation is hitting the verse, hasn't exactly been fun. I could only imagine it'd be much worse having to wait hours just to load and unload, that is, if it truly is hours for larger ships. 500 SCU plus

Very excited about personal hangers. One thing I do wish for, for the inventory terminals, is insurance on armor and weapons.

Can’t wait for the patch. Very excited.

I am sooo looking forward to this going live !

Can’t wait for this patch to go Live, between this and 4.0 it will finally give me more reasons to play the game more.

Vehicles start to make sense over a distance. In a room or over a short distance multitools are faster but if you have to carry and hike for 500-600m then a mule starts to be efficient. Now we need a 32 scu tractor truck to move the bigger stuff over a distance.

Taking away the convenience of instant cargo loading is going to make ships of all sizes useful, it's nice that there will always be small ships around if I am trying smuggling runs

I'm excited to give the Cargo update a try! The most exciting part for me is being able to spawn vehicles inside the same hanger, and have that persistent space to work with!

I love the idea of the personal hangars, I'm not sure I'm a fan of losing the personal inventory though. Having to remove the bags on the mining is such a pain as well. Do we get them back after refining the material? If not this is going to make mining even less profitable. Mining already has the most cash sinks in the game that I'm aware of, modules, lasers, refining costs, gadgets. Not all are super expensive but still a cost.

I’m extremely excited for cargo and hangar changes, but definitely feel like the personal inventory changes are going to need a LOT of work. Maybe even a hybrid system where you stand in proximity to the machine or a locker in your ship or something to access the general internal inventory would be good. Not totally “physicalized” but still far better than what’s in .24 currently.
