Barges still a thing?

[Shush Muppet]

Barges were replaced with the Bustard carrier. It has nowhere near the cargo capacity, but it's a generic ship with jumpdrive capability.

Unfortunately, it wasn't the jump capability I was looking for.

I had hoped to SRP a Zoner-operated barge in Pennsylvania to mine the Helium deposits there. Essentially supplying the raw resource for H-fuel production.

The trick was going to be that I'd planned to gather new(er) players in the system to mine the asteroids and help fill the barge up. Then I'd fly over to Bethlehem or Philadelphia or some station, sell the load, and give the newbies a couple million for their help.

I even figured at some point that it might have been fun to organize an event where a barge full of Sirius credit cards was escorted from one bank location to another. You know, classic cops vs. robbers for the big piles of money.

I'm rather disappointed now that I can't hope to fly a freaking huge ship that handles like a glacier.
