Extremely well-paid missions in X-T

Post by KiwiNZ »

Today I got two missions that I had not come across before!

1) Kill some Teladi in a Bat. 30.000 cr upon acception and another 60.000cr after completion. Cost me a mere 5056 cr for a new Teladi license and a few percents in my rating. There was not even an escort.

2) Get 50 units SpaceWeed for Pirate Station Brennans Triumph. Reward was 240240 cr, I think. The stuff cost me just over 100.000 cr at a Teladi Bliss Place (did not want to touch my own products as they sell high and very well ;-) ).

This is me cruising the universe in my XM. :D

I gave up doing missions a long time ago:
"Get 50 units of Teladianium for $10,000 reward." So I go and get them, and about 1000 units for myself at the same bargain price. Fly to the staion, drop of the 50 units they asked for, get my reward, oh my cargo hold is now empty. They took the lot. Great. That is me out of pocket by half a million (well almost :D )

Transfer the excess cargo to another ship before docking, then.

That's never happened to me; "Get X units of Y for $Z" has always taken exactly X units of cargo.

I have "sniped myself" though; the inventory purchased by your "fixer" goes into the station inventory, driving the price down. Now you won't get as good a price on your remaining inventory. That sneaky devil!

You've been around a while so it's silly of me to ask, but are you sure you're on version 2.1a?

you are right, it used to be a bug prior to v.2.1a.
