Transferring cargo to ship or suit

[United1k]

Just now do you transfer items from your freighter to your ship or suit?

Land in the freighter go talk to captain then you get option to transfer goods from freighter to ship and hence onto suit

I can put items directly into inventory but have to speak to the captain to take them out? Interesting.

I can't even find a way to put them into the freighter inventory without speaking with the captain, so if you've found a way to do that then you're doing better than I.

You can transfer from your ship to your freighter. To get from your suit you first transfer to your ship, then to your freighter. It is in the same place you move items back and forth from your suit to ship. Unfortunatley (for whatever INSAIN reason) you have to speak to your captain in order to transfer back from your freighter to your ship. From there you can transfer to your suit.

I wonder what the thought process was limiting the way you move stuff around. If you are in range of your freighter, you should be able to move from a to b to c in any combination. That is, unless the captian gets a "cut" from every transfer.

It's because Ship <-> Suit is hard coded to the X key (whatever button in console), they didn't plan freighters properly and just added a UI tab without adding the keybinds for it. Maybe in another update they'll figure out how to do it.

Like if you press X to transfer, you'll get a quickmenu to select your ship/freighter/suit and it'll remember which one you chose for the play session so you only have to hit X twice to transfer it to the one you previously chose.
Or pressing X shifts it to the next inventory available. Suit->Ship->Freighter->Suit

Or let me bind my own keys.
<x> to suit
<y> to ship
<z> to freighter
or something like that.

Also, let me bind a key to summon the freighter -- the fast menu might be useful on controller, but if I wanted a controller I wouldn't be playing on a PC.
