Vanishing commodities? - Race - 07-30-2011
Hello hello
So my problem is this: I spent much of my cash on a pelican transport and corresponding I'D, then I bought some military vehicles in Ontario to bring to new Hampshire. Lo and behold when I arrive there my hold is empty.
Some qualifiers:
I only had 100 or so units, that left me with around 1k creds
I logged on and off at several points in the journey but never docked anywhere along the way nor jettisoned my livelihood.
Is this sounding familiar to anyone? Thanks.

' Wrote:I logged on and off at several points in the journey but never docked anywhere along the way nor jettisoned my livelihood.Under what circumstances did you log off?
If you log off in space, your shields drop and your ship remains in space, floating where you were, for about a minute. If you logged off while any players were around (note this is against the rules) they may have killed you after you logged off.
It's also possible that an NPC patrol found and killed you after you logged off.
Did you run into any NPC pirates (that pop up the dialogs saying "drop the cargo") along the way?
It's also possible that something actually glitched--once upon a time I ran a trade run and arrived at the destination with an empty hold, with no explanation of where it had gone, and I knew that I'd filled up at the start.
For future reference, never throw all of your credits into a single load of cargo.
