How attack cargos??

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!

How attack cargos??

Hi everybody,
Sorry, it's a stupid question but.....

When I attack a big ship, cargo one, I try to use tractor but only few resources come to my ship, is that right?? When I scan the cargo, have something like "9999" of something... and when I kill him, only few of that come to my ship, what I need to do? Is that right??

Thanks...

You destroyed most of the cargo with your weapons.

What can I do to take at least the sufficient to full my ship??

Thanks (again)...

Your ship only has limited cargo space.

catch and release law: like he said shoot the crates, especialy if u pirate n liberty then relog to fix ur criminal rep, that brings in the dough.

Guys... I tried exactly this...
I went under a large cargo ship, attacked his storages, and destroyed one of them... when I used my tractor beam, only 9 (NINE!?) units of resource came to my ship... what is wrong??

Thanks (again, and again...)

I think some multiplayer servers handicap pirating, so that you blow a transport with 1.2 mil units of cargo and come away with 4 or something. Even when you shoot the cargo correctly you get maybe 4 per cargo hold. Other servers you can blow a transport to kingdom come and it will drop 300 or so. If its possible for a sysop to do that, than thats what is happening.
