Is a "Transfer All" Command possible?

Post by Scoob »

Hey all,

So, I have a Defence Platform near the front line with an enemy Faction. Lots of enemy ships die here and I order my own vessels to collect any loot. Inventory items, I pick up myself periodically, but Cargo items I deposit into the DP's storage.

While my collecting ships are set to "Dock and Wait" at the DP, so I give a collect order and they return on their own, I have to manually transfer any cargo each time. What I'd love to see is a "Transfer All Cargo" option that literally just dumps any cargo in the ship to the station.

Further more, being able to do this on a repeat order would be perfect. I.e. I have ships set to collect in area, then return and "transfer all cargo", so it's automated.

Ideally, taking things a bit further, a bespoke order to do all this would be great. So, a new behaviour "Collect and Transfer" could be run on a ship. That ship would then *look* for any loot (Cargo or Inventory, but perhaps an option for one or both to be chosen) and when it spots it in the sector it's monitoring, it will collect what it can, and return to offload at the designated station.

Something like this would help loot battle sites without all the manual interaction currently needed.

Possible?
