Is that alien tongue Venusian, or might it be rot13?
Just in case anybody wondered

It is my second language as rot13 is very close to Carniflorian

Hi Commanders!

I am having problem with Hyper Cargo equipment where it getting lost if doing half a dozen jumps without docking. I had a cargo contract to deliver computers to station in about 7 jumps, which I made using fuel stations and extra fuel tanks. No fighting or damaged equipment.

This time I had 64t of computers and 41t of machinery in Hyper Cargo and 52t of luxuries and 53t of computers in normal hold. When I arrived to destination I had 105 of cargo and computers and no HyperCargo equipment present.

I still have the previous save file and can try to run the jumps again trying no fighting condition. Is there a way to monitor or run debug / trace of what is going on if I will be lucky again to lose Hyper Cargo?

This happened to me before as well where I lost 1000 kg of gold.

Regards

It could be that your systems needed maintenance.

I am not concerned about if it was damaged. I am concerned why it is lost from F5 screen and save file? Same thing happened to Auxiliary Fuel Tank 3LY (5000cr cost). I lost it after several continued jumps. Equipment was completely removed from list.

There is a small chance on each jump with the HC active that the hyperspace fields will react and the HC will collapse. But if that happens you will lose your cargo and the HC will break, but it won't disappear completely. Plus it will tell you about it via a message when you arrive in the system.

That's not quite what you describe, and if you've also lost other equipment too then I'd wonder if there's something deeper going on here. Is there anything in the logs (although if you've started the game a few times since then the logs will be lost as it only keeps the latest and previous).
