Title: Loading Problem
Post by: TMaekler on September 19, 2016, 01:10:11 PM

Hi,

wanted to transfer an Orbital Habitate Module from one colony to the other via a transporter which has one standard cargo (25.000t space). The OHM is said to have a weight of 5.000 but I only get a warning that the module cannot be loaded. Any ideas, why?

The OHM is much larger than 25,000 tons. Look at its weight when you add it to a design.

Hmmm, yes, I see. But what does the 5.000 mean when you select it unter the construction tab and build it as a ship module?

Edit: never mind. It is the internal size Aurora uses...
Obviously the transporters don't transport assembled parts which are bigger than their cargo size (as they do with installations) in fractions.
