I posted about this before. It was fixed a bit, but as I had said at that time, it's still not fixed.

BPU has 185 bulk free. I get a mission to the next town and poof I have 370 bulk free so i get missions totaling 370 to the next town and when i egt there I now have 740 bulk free, repeat, next town I have 1480 bulk free and I'm in texan so I can load up 148 fuel cans into the BPU to bring back, or mount 2 tank guns and 30 reloads.

I guess this can't be abused too much though, since there's rarely enough bulk worth of missions to fill one BPU at 1480 bulk, much less multiple ones.

I been looking in the forums for the previous posts about this that included a response from Sam, it seems to have vanished. SO i'll post additional information here.

put a vehicle in squad with fuel for travel, go to tavern select squad under the advertise for courier mission function. click check space, get a mission of that size (60 for this example) to be delivered to elmsfield. send the squad to elmsfield, process encounters, wait for arrival. Upon arrival, go to the elmsfield tavern and click on advertise for courier mission and select the squad and click on check space, it now says twice the bulk is available, which in this case would be 120.
Then go to load unload cargo in the marketplace and install weapons.

Sorry, I thought the previous posts about this were still on the forums.

I think it would be good to see if this car works. If you are testing this bug, may as well test everything.

Id also be interested to see the results for gits and shiggles.

I just advertised for a package in Texan 112 bulk. Placed in my car.

Advertised again, checked available bulk, 112 available in that same car. Put another 112 package in the car.

Advertised again, 112 bulk available in that car. Checked vehicle in a new browser tab, -112 bulk available in the car. After selecting the package to place in car it now placed it in my lockup. (checking the car in another tab stopped the bug)

Ive never had this before. Very strange.


Not sure if you can check the pickup of the packages, server time roughly 03:15 2014-10-23, Squad - The Run (Squad ID: 68769) - Vehicle - Ready to Roll (Vehicle ID: 344694)


Advertised again; check available bulk. 112 available in that same vehicle. put 2 more packages in that car. Now -263 bulk in vehicle - Ready to Roll

03:22

I'm having issues with advertising for multiple courier missions too, though my issues don't seem as bad.

Say I have 50 bulk available, and take a 40 bulk mission. When I re-advertise, it says I still have 50 bulk available, but if I try to load such a large package, it simply dumps it in my lockup.

The website used to re-calculate the available space OK until a day or two ago. Not sure what might have changed (I did update my Java, not sure if that could have any effect here...).

I had noticed the fact that the space in vehcile report wasn't always reporting true.

It did not occur to me that you could accept the number, advertise for a package of that size and then load it (sometimes repeatedly).

In the interests of testing, I tried it today when i got a mis-report. Amazing, I can indeed have -87 space in a car (as reported by the car view). I am not sure that the weight is ignored though, so I don't think you could go too far on it.

As an aside if you request an oversize package and manually try to laod it it doesn't work.

I suspect that the Load Into Vehicle button after you have selected a mission doesn't run the same check routine as the manual loading screen an so allows you to exceed the limit.

I am in gits of figgles over this.

Got the "Car of holding" bug on my Voyager in Elmsfield: Current bulk -41.

Same process of advertising for a courier mission as described above.

Yeah, I just tried this again with the same squad, now in BL. loaded at roughly 12:10 (server time)

A few times when advertising I could even chose the same package (size and payment were the same) as if the list was not regenerating. But after loading the package (for the 2nd time the same package) it did not show in my vehicle or lockup.

When advertising, no vehicle is showing any change in bulk amounts, all show as if carrying no packages.

Ive got the same thing again in GW

Same car

Chose 2 112 packages to fill my 112 bulk (I already had 2 112 packages and -112 bulk available). I now have only 3 packages and it seems one disappeared again. EDIT: one of the old packages was replaced by one of the new packages I picked up in GW.

all cars still show as if they have full spare bulk even though they have packages in their cargo.


I tried checking the vehicle pages and refreshing but I still have the bulk free.

Not sure what other info I can provide. Really something funny going on here. Im going to set up some more squads and do more tests.

has anything changed with running missions lately?

interesting to see whether this causes inflation in the dw economy... and/or surfaces bugs in the weight/power/acceleration calculations (when I start loading 10x 55 bulk 110 weight packages into a pho.

(is this a stealth implementation of tow hitches and u-haul trailers?)

by the way, would't qiuick-release trailers be fun, in a Hussite sort of way?

This has worked like this since i started playing in 2010. economy isn't affected by missions, and vehicle weight isn't affected by missions. I guess that's a separate bug issue though.
