Is there more to smuggling?

[farmerman]

One problem I see with many smugglers is that they believe they HAVE to haul unlawful / illegal cargo... you dont. My smuggler, which I've been running for over a year and a half now, does what is commonly referred to as 'sprint-trading'.

What this means is that I go to the nearest base, I land, and find a commodity that I can buy for cheap, then i look on my list of sale locations until I find a place where I can sell it for big bucks. I fly there, then find new cargo. I almost never run the same route twice, about 50-75% of what I haul actually ends up being legal/lawful cargo, while the rest is various illegal goods.

I like doing the same. I think of it more as a semi-non-predictable loop trade though. It does work best with smugglers because if they run into illegal goods, it still works!
