Dead Drop Tips

Ordering from Suppliers

Relationship

It was not clear in the game, but to be able to order shipments from suppliers you need to keep ordering dead drops to gain a good relationship. Asking to meet up does not contribute to relationship. Order a few extra dead drops will have them text you that you can order direct to door.

Debts

A very easy method I have found and use to pay off my debts to suppliers is to have a bunch of cash sitting in their designated dead drop. This way, as soon as I order more supplies, the debt is paid off. When ever I am close by to their dead drop, I fill it with more cash for later.

Filling Dead Drops

I could not find anything online regarding what happens to items left inside the many dead drops on the map. I tested a few things to see what would happen, but I would love if someone assisted and I could add their findings here too.

Filling ALL dead drops with items

I was curious what would happen if I ordered a dead drop and all locations were full with individual unique items. I ran around finding them and putting single unique ingredients in each slot.
The outcome was that the dead drop text would not drop

Filling ALL BUT 2 dead drops with items

I emptied 2 dead drops near the Docks Warehouse and once I emptied the second one, the first one received the pending dead drop. I ordered more supplies and saw that the dead drop would now alternate between the 2 dead drops.
This means I could now dictate where the drops will be.
You can only have 1 dead drop arrive in that location, so if you had Weed, Coca, or Pseudo, you'd need to run back and forth between 2 dead drops at a time.

Notes

• I am certain that the dead drop just needs a single item, not all the slots.
  
• Dead drop orders do not overwrite existing items in a dead drop
  
• Dead drop order will not go into the dead drop that was most recently emptied
  
• Haven't tested to see what happens if 3 locations are available, I assume it will do a 50/50 split between the 2 that were not touched recently
  
• Not sure how the allocation of dead drops works when all are available, at the start of the game, orders drop quite close by...

Unrelated: Press F for Torch, this wasn't explained in the game and found it by accident

What if you're on a quest that includes picking an item up from a dead drop but doesn't register with the game and advance the quest after you do so?
