My ship is full of junk !

[Kirshak]

Hey guys,

I notice that from time to time my ship gets filled with junks like foam cups, bowls and a lot of junks.

Where all this crap come from ? My guess would be that when I board and steal a ship, and then swap home ship in order to sell it, it's cargo goes into my new home ship ? But that's just a wild guess at this point

Ship and hub decorations automatically count as cargo items. Be it stolen ships, purchased ships, gifted ships, or modified ones via hub additions. It sucks, I know.

I think it comes over when we loot destroyed ships. I has no weight ans costs somthing, but we really need an auto function to sell it.

It's some sort of glitch.

I believe any ship module has some furniture/junk-esque things to make it seem a bit more real and "lived in", but whenever you edit ship parts or buy/sell ships, the engine creates another set of junk inside the ship while forgetting to delete the previous set of junk.

Luckily you can get rid of it at vendors by selecting "Sell from ship".

It's all the decor items in the ship. I keep selling it at vendors and it respawns so free coins.

i think it's meant to be from your crew/companions living on the ship. people have needs (like cups to drink from) and that creates mess. it does seem to build up very quickly, though. i just sell most of it at the trading terminals. barrett will just have to get by with only a couple of blender bases

[edit] just had to sell 43 coffee mugs that had built up. so maybe it is bugged

yeah... periodically the ship will attempt to "redecorate" there seems to be a pattern to it but i am unsure what actually causes the ship decorations to reset. what does "flood" your inventory however, is any time you make changes where you need to save your ship ... everything you placed along with the standard module decorations, if they updated recently,
will spam into your ship's storage. it's pretty much free credits but it is annoying.

...also if you make any... absolutely ANY modifications to the "Frontier" your starter ship, you will lose the map and research tables along with some hidden "bonus" stats you cant even see. as the "NOVA Galactic All - In - One hab" doesn't come with those normally and the game will default your Frontier to the non-Unique model you can find anywhere. so yeah that's a thing.

i think the devs dont make that variant availible to purchase because if they did, it would generate with all the unique dialogue and placed items relating to Barret as it currently is modeled in the game files... notice how when you normally enter a ship, it gives you the option to enter or teleport directly to the cockpit? well your first time entering the frontier it doesnt give you this option, which is only one thing that makes that module unique as far as coding works in the game.

It's from Shipjacking. You steal a ship and either sell it, or remove/replace it's HABs, all the Misc and Aid items strewn around as decorations get put in that ship's Cargo, witch is just the same universal Cargo as all your ships. I'm not sure if its from selling or swapping HABs specifically or both, but one or both of those is the cause. It's not a Glitch, as you'd want your items back if you scrapped/sold a ship/HAB.

You necro'd a 11 month old thread dude. and what they are talking about WAS a bug that was present back then, but has since been fixed.

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
