Perishable Goods?

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!

Perishable Goods?

Curious what this means, its in big bold red, so its kinda fearsome, not sure i want to dabble in the perishable trades if they gonna flake out and perish during the journey, anyone know exactly what this whole perishable thing is about?

Perishable items slowly lose hit points and expire while in your cargo hold, press F7 and click on the commodities button to monitor how many hit points a particular unit of a perishable commodity has left.

From what I've seen, you loose a unit of the cargo every 1 or 2 tradelane docks or gate/hole jumps. Does anyone have definative proof that the cargo "decay" is linked to time (the game time played clock is the only one you can monitor) or navigation item usage (or travel distance)? This would be of interest in deciding to use the tradelanes or just cruise across open space. (I would certainly hope this decay is based on actual game time).

Let's just put it this way, MOVE FAST! Perishables such as Alien Organisms and Luxury Food just don't do well in your cargo hold.
