Reaver Glitterstim	Posted - 2011.02.18 08:25:00 - [1] I found this a little puzzling, anything you know about this would be helpful. While salvaging a wreck from a mission, I got an error message that said something along the lines of not having enough room for the salvage, though I didn't catch the whole message. But I had over 50 m3 remaining in my ship's cargo hold when it happened. Did I miss something large and/or potentially valuable?
Alotta Baggage Amarr Imperial Manufactorum Armada Assail	Posted - 2011.02.18 08:36:00 - [2] You missed the world's biggest truffle, needs 1 m3 more than you had to hold it and it's worth eleventy billion isk Originally by: Magnus Andronicus ur character looks like a f***ing clown dude.
Wurzel Gummidge	Posted - 2011.02.18 08:38:00 - [3] I wonder if it's something to do with metal scraps that have become more numerous in salvage tables recently, I don't think the odd one piece of metal scraps would be that large though. I can't read and I can't write, but that doesn't really matter, Cos I come from Trowbridge and I can drive a tractor
Aloe Cloveris The Greater Goon	Posted - 2011.02.18 08:40:00 - [4] Ugh. It's because you have to have enough room for sixteen useless metal scraps at 5m3 apiece (and they refine into, like, 100 units of trit!) if that's what the RNG gods decide to give you. Really wish you could choose to NOT accept metal scraps when salvaging. It's pretty dumb.
Serpents smile	Posted - 2011.02.18 08:42:00 - [5] Have run into this a few times myself. I suspect (not sure though) that when you start salvaging it is not yet clear what you may or may not salvage. So the software assumes the 'worst case scenario' which would probably be a hand full of metal scraps which would not fit if salvaged so it tells you it cannot salvage because it assumes that if it is scraps that it won't fit. Am I making sense? (I fear the worst).
Reaver Glitterstim	Posted - 2011.02.18 08:45:00 - [6] Does that mean I lost the 12 armor plates I know that wreck had, or did I just lose the metal scraps? Reminds me of the stargates that drop 50 metal scraps, and there is not a ship I can fly that can destroy one in less than 2 hours and also collect its loot in one go >.<

You don't get any of the salvage content, if you don't succesfully salvage the entire wreck.
THERisingPHOENIX Caldari	Posted - 2011.02.18 08:57:00 - [8] Just drop all the loot to a can then salvage, then filter wat salvages are good and bad to ur cargo hold.
Siigari Kitawa Gallente Senex Legio Get Off My Lawn	Posted - 2011.02.18 09:05:00 - [9] Sounds like it's time to invent a new midslot module called "Salvage Filter: When activated, allows you to select what salvage and which quantity goes into your cargohold and what salvage does not." www.siigarikitawa.com ò www.eohpoker.com ò Buy a GTC
Iceni	Posted - 2011.02.18 09:32:00 - [10] Originally by: THERisingPHOENIX Just drop all the loot to a can then salvage, then filter wat salvages are good and bad to ur cargo hold. Do this. Put all the metal scraps and 800m3 cap boosters in a can and suddenly you get your cargohold back again.
Pod Amarr	Posted - 2011.02.18 09:43:00 - [11] And why not just use Noctis which can easily salvage everything from missions to plexes in one go with like 2700 m3 of space. Pod
Xearal Minmatar SOL Industries Black Thorne Alliance	Posted - 2011.02.18 09:53:00 - [12] On some missions, you get well over 4000m3 of loot, so no.. even a noctis can have troubles. However, dumping your cap boosters and metal scraps DOES free up all that space. and if you must you can always come back for them ;)
Keith F Caldari United ALT Forces	Posted - 2011.02.18 10:04:00 - [13] sometimes it just pays to to a can behind you
Carola Kessler	Posted - 2011.02.18 11:15:00 - [14] Folks he is talking about Salvage not Loot, and Metal Scrap is definitely not a Salvage product its Loot!! So i assume most likely the result he got while salvaging a wreck, was a bit to much to fit completely in his Cargospace, if this is the Case and Cargospace can't take the amount about Salvaged processed stuff it clearly states Failed and you get nothing out of it due to your try to Salvage the wreck, best thing to prevent this happen is getting a Salvage ship with a bit more cargospace or fit a Cargohold expansion.

Cannonfodder1982	Posted - 2011.02.18 13:12:00 - [18] the message says u need 80m3 of spare space to salvage a big wreck it makes no sence but thats how it is
Liorah	Posted - 2011.02.18 13:48:00 - [19] It actually makes a lot of sense, and reveals when the calculation is made. If the check were made after the salvage operation succeeded, instead of before it was attempted, you would have been given a choice of things to not salvage, if you truly didn't have space. Guessing it's "too hard" to pop up a window asking you to pick and choose salvage if you don't have sufficient space.
EnslaverOfMinmatar Amarr Viziam	Posted - 2011.02.18 20:21:00 - [20] I tried to salvage a freighter and it said you need 25,000 m3. Another freighter salvaged just fine. uʍop ǝpısdn ǝɹnʇɐuƃıs ʎɯ ƃuıpɐǝɹ ǝɹɐ noʎ Signature removed. Please submit a petition for further details. Navigator

Guessing it's "too hard" to pop up a window asking you to pick and choose salvage if you don't have sufficient space. This is incorrect. It only makes the calculation when I have finished salvaging. At the point in time that it decided I didn't have enough space for what was coming, it deleted it all and gave me nothing, and the wreck disappeared. The rest of the large wrecks were salvaged just fine with less than 50m3 space remaining.
