Rolling off of the UI updates, this week changes the final step of smuggling contracts. Instead of auto-loading, smuggling pick up points are now interactable cargo caches at each outpost. The purchased parcels must now be unloaded by hand before the pursing bounty hunter arrives to distribute justice. To compensate for the added chore, the gains of smuggling contracts have been increased.
Future updates will further integrate cargo caches to add optional shipless solutions to new and existing contract types.
Join us on Discord for public playtests Friday at 12pm ET, Saturday at 3pm ET, and Monday at 7pm ET.
