Carrier storage
So I got a FC and I want to load it up with some cargo (specifically Tritium for a long trip). Say I take my cargo ship and mine or buy stuff, how do I transfer it to my FC? Sure I can "donate" the Tritium up to 1k, but if I wanted to store more? I have 20k space. Would I have to fiddle with the commodities market to sell it to my self? Is there a way to just transfer the cargo from my ship to my carrier's storage?

you go to the menu for ship cargo storage inventry on right panel, keyboard button 4 for right panel by default and there in the inventry page there is a transfer button then another couple of buttons to "transfer ship cargo to carrier" or the other way "transfer carrier to ship cargo hold" to sell

I'm guessing there's no quicker way, right? I'm trying to load 20kt of tritium and using a Type 9 stripped to the hull with nothing but cargo pods and it's still taking forever!

I haven't played for a while and only used the fleet carrier for about a week, but I think there is a button to move all to carrier and it was instant if I can remember correctly
other commanders may be able to expand on this o7

just had a check in-game "see picture link below"

highlight the item in your hold you want to transfer i.e.Tritium then above there is a message that says transfer all to carrier and at the bottom of the UI click the confirm button and It will empty the full quantity of Tritium to the carrier hold.

if your asking if there is a way to insta fill I dont think so ..... It would be nice to travel with the fleet carier to the local space dock and say "fill her up " lol

Apparently the most recent Community Goal is about upgrading stations to do just that. It sounds like it'll only be a few stations so I'm guessing we'll all be waiting in some long XXX queue. LOL!

Quicker way would be park your fc near a station selling cheap tritium, offer an attractive buying price, and let other cmdrs load the fc for you.
