Trade Distribution questions

Post by Jimmy C » Tue, 31. Aug 21, 04:19

Getting TD to work and refilling ECells on my Equipment Dock was easy enough. But I am running into issues with transferring wares into ships.

For one, it looks like TD will only transfer to ships not docked to stations and makes it mandatory for the ship running the TD to have a Transporter Device. If the destination ship is docked, the TD ship can't make transfers. As a workaround, I can have the TD ship dump the wares in the Dock, then have the receiving ship use TD to pull the wares onboard. But this is inefficient and makes it awkward to do things like Manual Trade Run from the Dock with the same ware later.

Is there a better way to do this? If there was CLS, I could transfer to the docked ship, which could accumulate a stockpile and transfer surplus to the Dock to be sold via Manual Trade Run. I'd like to be able to do that again.
