Before I go and blow a whole bunch of credits on getting a bigger/faster ship, I just have a couple questions for those lucky enough (or fast enough) to have gotten a galaxy freighter or stellar freighter already...
What's the ion drive speed of the freighters?
What's their base cargo capacity?
Do the cargo containers that I already have on my cargo ship transfer over to that freighter or do I have to buy all new ones?
For that matter... what is the maximum number of cargo containers for the ships? Is there a limit or can you keep adding onto them?
Cargo Vessel ?s
Dunno about the Galactic Freighter, but the Stellar Freighter specs are as follows:
Ion 8 (top speed 85)
Cargo 40t (without extension)
Cost: 99,500 creds
cargo extensions transfer between ships, but only one is in operation at any time - the largest you have. No ship operates multiple cargo extensions. sell the smaller ones back as you upgrade, if you can find somewhere to buy them. same with stardrives.
If I was gonna reccomend a ship, it would have to be the pirate - its nippy , reasonable cargo hold, and not too expensive. (ion 10, 20t cargo I think) and it looks kinda funky too
Cobra ion 14, cargo 22, cost around 50,000cr
Until the defensive/attack capabilities come in with the piracy, I wouldn't bother upgrading ship any further than the pirate (but go as high as you can afford with cargo extensions & stardrive). Mit mentioned elsewhere that he has some interesting ship add-ons coming for the bigger ships, but at the moment the prices are too high for limited benefits

Trying out the Galactic Freighter now. General stats are as follows:
Ion: 8 (max speed 80.00)
Cargo Capacity: 29
Which brings me to another question... is it supposed to be 29 or 30? The cargo transport has a limit of 20 while the stellar freighter has a limit of 40. Seems that the galactic freighter should be 30 instead of 29.
