Bug Cannot eject Cargo; Dumping never swicked back on

Post by tupe666 »

I was trying to dump some slaves and narcotics when I was traveling too fast it switched off dump cargo. Even after traveling between stations this switch did not reset. Only when closing the program and restarting was I able to finally dump my cargo.

:evil: What were you doing trading slaves? What system are you in? The pain that you feel when I torture you is only 1/10 of the pain that I felt every day when I was a slave, It all ended when I killed my master with worm keys.

@ FSO:
Don't automatically assume he's a slaver, mate. It's all too easy to pick up slaves when scooping the spoils of battle; he may have shot down a slaver.
Used to be at one time, scooping the escape pods of ejected pilots resulted in more slaves on the market. Now the laws have changed, and there's substantial rewards for rescuing the pods of innocent traders, or capturing ejected pirates for the bounty on their heads.

@ tupe:
Are you sure you didn't have the superdrive ('j' key) turned on?
You cannot jettison unwanted cargo while running the superdrive.

I dropped down to a mark one, a big mistake which leaves me with little shields so my fuel scoop was damaged. I'll see if it happens again.

I've not come across this reward thing. I've been dropping those slaves left right and center.
