Tractoring

Ok, as soon as something explodes I always have my hand on the B key and vacuum up anything they drop, but sometimes, i open the loot interface, select something, goto it and attempt tractor it with Shift-B or B alone, and EVERY time it says something that sounds like "Tractor Failing" and doesnt do anything, i still manage to pick SOME things up, but things stay and I would like to know what to do to fix this.

It seems to happen to me when you are trying to tractor something that you are already full of, like nanobots and shield batteries. The starting demo ship can only carry ten of each, and extras do not just go into your cargo.

At least, that's what I've noticed. Could be and most likely wrong though.

Got a full game...really

The tractor beam is fun, some you can get a scrap metal parts
for selling price of $600 or ship equipment parts.

Just don't knock the goods or pickup a contraband.

Watch your six.....
