In the video, Loud Guns discusses a bug affecting cargo work orders in a mining and refining game, which can cause cargo boxes to become unresponsive, particularly during the “Supply or Die” missions. He provides a workaround involving specific steps for storing and retrieving ships to ensure that refined goods remain interactable, while also urging developers to improve the mining system for a more permanent solution.
In this video, the host, Loud Guns, addresses a significant bug affecting players in a mining and refining game, specifically related to cargo work orders getting stuck to the cargo grid of ships. This issue renders many cargo boxes unresponsive, hindering players from completing missions or selling their refined goods, especially during the high-stakes “Supply or Die” missions. To help players avoid losing their refined cargo, Loud Guns presents a reliable workaround that can alleviate the frustrations caused by this bug.
The workaround involves a specific procedure for storing and retrieving ships. The host emphasizes the importance of properly landing and storing the ship through the ASOP terminal inside the hangar. Players must wait for the entire storage animation to complete before proceeding. This careful approach ensures that the ship is in a retrievable state, preventing the bug from activating when players leave the hangar.
Once the ship is stored correctly, players can head to the refinery to load their jobs onto the ship as usual. However, it is crucial to return to the hangar to call the ship from the ASOP terminal there, rather than from the lobby or entrance hall. By following these steps, players can ensure that the cargo boxes from their refinery jobs remain interactable, allowing them to transfer the goods to cargo elevators and complete their missions without issues.
Loud Guns credits a Reddit user, Lord Ibr, for discovering this workaround and encourages viewers to show appreciation for their contribution in the comments section. The host also expresses a shared sentiment that this workaround should not be a permanent solution, urging the game developers to improve the mining system by allowing refinery jobs to be delivered directly to station inventories and enabling players to set up orders from bags instead of mining ships.
In conclusion, the video serves as a quick guide to help players navigate the cargo bug and get back into mining activities without losing valuable resources.
