Yes, I just tested in the console by typing:

Code: Select all

manifest.gold = 499
and your cargo is still empty. Than:

Code: Select all

manifest.gold = 500
and you are using 1 ton of cargo space. Than launching, selecting gold (Shift-R) and than dump the gold container. You now have 499 gold in stock, meaning that the container was just filled with 1 kg of gold. The remaining 499 is in the safe and can't be dumped. :D

Nice change Cim. :wink:

I figured there was a limit to how much precious metals and gems I could carry, but I haven't ever reached it. I should really keep my eye on the levels then.

I didn't know this either :oops: . Thanks for the enlightenment fellas! :)
