hand over your cargo or i will take it

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

hand over your cargo or i will take it

I have had several encounters in the sp where criminals ask em the question, give me the cargo or ill open fire.

Here you can choose drop cargo or cancel, how can you do this yourself, that would make it a lot easier.

Thinking is not the answer, knowing is...... I was sure that I left my ship in the docking bay.....

it isnt possible.

well, you could chat with another player in MP to make him hand over some of his cargo, yet you wont have any chance with NPCs...

Maybe I'm mis-understanding the question here. Are you asking how you "star-jack" another ship? Or are you asking how you dump cargo on your own?

Well, as far as I know.. (and I've not had the oppertunity to play in MP) you can't star-jack another ship outside of blasting him to bits and taking what you want. "You're puny escorts won't help you now...." type of thing..

I noticed a couple of days ago while playing around with the interface... If you go to the inventory menu, select the cargo option, and click on the cargo item, there is a small icon that appears. Hovering over the icon it says something like "drop cargo". I didn't want to lose my cargo at the time, so I didn't click on it. But you could always try that.

no i needed to know how to steal form others, jettising cargo isnt that hard.

They ask questions first and then shoot. You have to shoot first and then ask questions later on. If you want the cargo, you have to kill them for it.
