    Wish the RAFT could hook the ATLS on the back like a truck with a forklift.

    A tip I learned for the awkward view for the atls is to angle the mech in a stationary spot and hold or tap z to free look around, the tractor beam still works and I can just point and click to my heart's content.

    I accepted and I did 10 cargo mission at the same time in my C2 (Baijini to Area18) 2 orders were going to Baijini and 8 were coming back to Area18 from Baijini just to build up the REP faster. Lots of 1SCU boxes made it interesting for sure lol. It was fun and only made 160k for a 1 1/2 hour run but it was fun with the ATLS as it really reduces the times to load and unload. Those big boxes are definitely hard to place for sure as you can't see the drop location. You have a good system going. I used to drive semis and did LTL deliveries and used to load my 53' trailers myself so yes you need a system lol. Thanks for another great video Farrister. Cheers

    I did not like using the Hercules (I have a C2) during 3.24 PTU. But with 3.24.1 and the ATLS, I absolutely love using it for Cargo Hauling. They are a match made in heaven.

    Just so you know on the size hanger you were using here there is a cargo elevator immediately on your right when you go in the hanger. There are 2 in each hanger. If you park the Hercules at an angle there would be a freight elevator at both the front and back cargo doors.

    For cargo REP, one need to do same level mission at whatever you're top level is at, any missions below that level do NOT seem to earn REP or if it does it's a tiny fraction.
    Small means 1-4 SCU size contains, Medium size 8 SCU for rookie to member level, above it's 8-16 SCU size containers, Large 32 SCU size containers.
    At Experienced level you do have to watch it carefully (unless flying a Hull C) while a large mission may say it's only 496 SCU and your hauler (M2 just to use Farristers ship) can carry more than that with a 522 SCU total, but it's limited to only 7 32 SCU containers (at least within the official cargo grid), the mission will spawn 15 32 SCU & 1 16 SCU

    Awesome video. I too have the M2 with recently purchased ATLS. The ATLS is a MUST! for cargo. Hands down, the best purchase in the game for me. Ive had the M2 since release. The extra armor defense capability (which is still yet to be brough into the game apparently). I like your organization, both with contracts and the loading process.
    When 30K is fixed i will do like you with ship positioning and multi-contracts.

      I melted my Argo MPUV and got an ATLS. For me it works much better and is easier to use. Granted that I will move the boxes with the ATLS and then "fine tune" the stacking of the boxes to keep things tight and in the right group.

  • @Bell_the_Cat
    @Bell_the_Cat 2 місяці тому +1

    I like using the ATLS. On the moving cargo matter, I've found the easiest way for me is trying to position myself behind the crates as much as possible and moving them ahead of me, out the back of the cargo hold. This has been predominantly on the C1. Regardless, success is ultimately dependent on positioning your ship next to the freight elevator.

  • @sysko5986

    The ironic and missed name/play on words is that the ATLS is said to be a "Titan" suit in which Atlas was a Greek titan that held up the sky.

  • @olmecultra6588
    @olmecultra6588 2 місяці тому +2

    Ya, try working with the 32scu containers. They are a pain to load with the ATLS. Unloading with the ATLS is much better but not having the ability to manipulate the 32scu makes loading them a nightmare...totally not with the effort. The medium and small hauls are almost as profitable and much easier...of course at that point why use a behemoth Herc, the Caterpillar is much better or even an MSR/Spirit.

  • @obaniehia

    Honestly, been running the Argo MPUV tractor and just keep the ATLS for hanger work. didn't know this when it dropped but the MPUV Tractor has a 16SCU cargo grid on it and it is great for pulling cargo from wrecked ships

  • @slipshft1

    One note that I made is that the Freight Elevator while at the warehouse, you can click on multiple items to select them, then click move all instead of clicking and moving them one at a time on the freight screen.

    I am new in the verse. I have a question based on the contracts: If you and a friend accept the same contract, do you need to load twice the volume or does it put you and your friend in the same contract working together? I have not tried this yet.

  • @davewills6121
    @davewills6121 2 місяці тому

    Have an M2 yet prefer the light cargo fun with the Raft, M2 is a nice ship in many respects especially with the Meridian Paint, yet the Raft offers the level of cargo that just pays the bills, and the ''Sky crane and tractor beam'' will be a nice immersive touch once added.

    What are your thoughts on the Taurus for cargo missions in 3.24?

    • @shawnc5188
      @shawnc5188 2 місяці тому +2

      I use a Taurus for ERT, it can carry 4x 32scu crates (max 174scu) so excellent for looting NPC C2s and caterpillars. The tractor turret is buggy - sometimes the beam will grab the ship, not crates, so I prefer to EVA with a maxlift. Every time I land in Orison to deposit loot, I usually do a 100scu haul for my return to Seraphim. The tractor turret has full access to the cargo bay and you can easily load/unload quite fast.

  • @novalis791
    @novalis791 2 місяці тому

    M2: armor, better components, 3rd gunner. Hauls smarter with valuable cargo. It seems like squeezing the extra storage on the C2 does not match the lower volume sales of high value cargo cubes. Since you’d have to string multiple missions for high value cargo (or have long waits for commodity refresh); I’d choose the M2

  • @Sludgebuster
    @Sludgebuster 2 місяці тому

    The ATLS in your hangar is someone else's: There is a current bug where you cant store a ship with an ATLS inside- so those of us who want to store our ships just leave it around, as we claim it from wherever we start again.. If this bug keeps up, Everyone can have their own ATLS! :D

    Has anyone else been having the issue that the ATLS can't detach from a ships cargo grid?
    And does anyone know a fix for that? It's nice being able to load it on but not being able to unload with it directly is annoying (If I detach from the grid it'll let me unload but that's an extra step that I'd prefer to avoid if I can)

    Welcome to the world of Tramp Freighters, a shipping mainstay of the late 19th, early 20th centuries. Fill up the hold as much as you can with other people's stuff, and if you want to speculate, use the empty space. Smaller ships make better 3D Tetris games; you have to work with fitting box sizes more than with an indoor football field.

  • @thierrybo6304
    @thierrybo6304 2 місяці тому

    I do not think it is very risky to do classic hauling if you accept less profitable routes. I learned this when I did my first manual loading at an outpost. Yes this was the first time and someone stole my C2 when it was almost full. After that I never used routes that do not use a hangar. Yes this prevents the best profitable places and commodities, still I make more profit than cargo missions and I am safe.

    This is what i hate in new update - it took 2h with atlas to gain 200k. so +/- 3h without atlas. It is equal to one 26 minutes Beryl run before upgrade and you did not even saw one 32scu container. Not even one.
    I did love cargo runs, i even had one C2 on my own, but now i did not started SC in over 2 weeks. If you will do salvage runs with vulture, after some missions you will end up with some 1 scu containers you need to load. Do 10 missions with vulture and you will end up with around 300 containers, do more and you need to load it to station, station to C2 then C2 TO PORT AGAIN to sell it! i can tell you will do this only once and you will hate star citizen as it takes around 2h of loading/unloading alone. Also fun fact - bugs will steal lots of 1scu boxes of you.
    I think i will sell all ships and end game here, or will leave one ship for myself and maybe will play sometimes.

    Add : Star citizen is a shitttttyyyy game, broken mechanics, bugs lags but still, you decide to make some salvage play and suddenly you find an ATLS then all game changes to make you love and play the game.

    I don't like the way the ATLS works with placing cargo. It's a failure of design. The ATLS is supposed to make life easier when moving cargo but just introduces more of the frustration that is familiar in star citizen because nothing is properly thought out and executed. It's a great idea, poorly done.
