Why can't I pick up this passenger?

Post by vladesch » Wed, 24. Aug 11, 04:16

I don't understand, I've done these missions on another ship and I can;t see a problem. I'm docked at Sattelite factory alpha, I get no message, but the passenger wont board my ship. I get no option that helps if I try comm. I have over 100 units of spare cargo which should be plenty.

I'm in a harrier in case that is relevant.

Is there cargo space available? And what cattafet said.

Aaaaaargh. Thanks for that.
I wish the game could be a bit more helpful with these sort of things.

Oh well, back to the discoverer.

Some also demand a TM class ship to take them to their location. Try to keep that in mind also.

Sorry, I haven't played the game for a while, and I never did get the acronims and classes (for the transports anyway)

They should have made the Cargo Life Support extension require M cargo...

I disagree. It's convenient at times to get a fast M5 to collect upgrades, including the CLS. It's also nice to dock one on a larger ship just have a spare set of upgrades, again including a CLS. :wink:
Have a great idea for the current or a future game? You can post it in the [L3+] Ideas forum.

X4 is a journey, not a destination. Have fun on your travels.
