Well we miners are running into a problem. we want to have a 5000 cargo transport to haul what we mine for maximum take. but we are hard pressed to find any ID that would be suitable for mining purposes with a cargo that isn't limited.

both the generic trader and mining ID cap out at 3.8k and the junker caps at 4.2k.

we really don't want to use the junker ID due to its ties with the unlawfuls and the Xenos still shooting at us even though we are miners of liberty. but we want to keep mining scrap outside of Pittsburgh to help out the new players as much as possible and give them a way to make money without the hassle of pirates and people that would stop them from trading

Any suggestions?

maybe a special RP request for a exception?

this is SRS BZNZ!

but really. im at a loss

maybe the IMG transport, but it doesnt get a mining bonus, and I think it only has 4200 cargo.

Pittsburgh is primarily a DSE installation. Maybe DSE could send a transport out? Wouldn't even have to be part of your group, you could RP it as you all working under a contract to clear a certain region for whatever reason, and they're providing the shipping.

well if you want something generic, get an advanced train or a liberty supertransport.


Mining Capacity - shadowjman - 08-10-2009

well we dont need the mining bonus for the transport becuase with our miners we can have the area filled with enough scrap to fill out pirate train which also has 4200 cargo. that is why we are needing a larger cargo. because we have enough miners to overmine, but not enough to run 2 transports and people that listen to how we would like them to mine are kinda scarce, most of the current miners just sit tehre and run off shooting at the NPC's that shoot them...which can cut down on productivity as you may have guessed.

we make 115 mill in about an hour and we split it evenly. but we would like to bring a mining Corp to liberty since we seem to not have a set one in place. and there is alot of mining opportunity within the liberty space.

granted it is just an Idea right now, it would be nice to just have a good group of people just making money making intelligent RP talk in local and system chat to help rejuvenate the server and bring the new players into the mix of the RP since we seem to have alot of them kinda lost right now

well i think we would be willing to work with the DSE...i would have to talk it over with the others. we will contact them as soon as we can

also its not the ship that is the problem. its the ID restrictions on cargo capacity.

Time to get DSE on the line...
