 Greetings...
I though I would mine for an hour with using my buddys and my account before i goto bed. and low and behold my buddy char. couldn't pick up anything my char. left in a cargo container in space. so I had to go back and get the indy with my char. almost lost my crusier witch was setup for maining mining and a few beams and my indy due to my buds chatr not able to be able to get my ore in my cargo. so therefore I lost a bunch of ore in space due to having to go back repair my cruiser and kill pirate than go back and get indy and almost losing it. and only getting a third of or less of what the indy can hold and said screwe it because more pirate come. and u know indys are defenceless pretty much in 0.0 sec space. Letting you know that something needs to be done. I am so frustated. I prolly won't mine for a week now. and prolly won't play for at lease 2 day just to update my skills because of how frustreated i am. I know your work hard at this game but this bug blows my mind. yeah people compin about can *****s. yeah there are theives in real life too. I had ppl steel from my cans. but when where 100k of omber in a can? will ui notice prolly not by much. Pls look into issue.
Has anyone else ran into the same issue
Thanx...

Erm, what do you want to say? From what i was able to understand you was somehow not able to move the ore into your cargohold. You also complained about pirates are to strong. Is that right?

It sounds a lot like the bug where once another person access a cargo container that you have open, its bogarted from then on.
To duplicate the bug, mine some ore to a cargo container, have another person, take some of the ore out. Put more ore in again. The can will not refresh for the other person, so they never see the updates to the can till they relog.
(This is/was a common problem with team mining. You put in a can for the indy driver. Once they access the can once, they cant see any of the new minerals added to the can.)
The way I usually get around it is by putting into a can, the amount the indy can carry, so the can goes away once its picked up.

I usually cycle my cargo container every time an indy hauls so that it can still see it all next time

That has to be one of the most incoherent messages I have seen for days.
I don't have a clue what his complaint is.

Neither do I...
But usually can update bugs don't need a relog, in most cases warping away is sufficient. (Maybe docking is needed...)

or you can just let the indy driver jettison the can. you can't see whats in it, but at least the indy driver can keep track

presumably:
He was mining in 0.0 space, but his buddy character (I presume alt char) could not pick up the contents of the container. He had to return to his main char, who was in a ship mainly fitted to mine.
In the meanwhile, npc pirates popped up and took potshots at his cruiser which he had to repair. After repairs, he took the industrial back to the belt and began to gather up the minerals in the carco container. This did not go fast enough, so by the time he had 1/3rd of the indies' hold filled, npc pirates came and nearly wasted his industrial ship.
thats what I think it means.
Now, why wouldn't the other char be able to take cargo from the container? Rather odd.

The container update bug is already in programmers hand. Expect it to be fixed very very soon.

ok...
Let me make it little clearer. I was real tired last night. ok I would mine and put ore into a normal cargo container while my buddy was doing the samething. I sent him back to get all the ore in all the containes; he could pick all the ore he mined but the ore i place into the can he could not pick up.
Hope that clears it up alittle.
Thanx...

My guess is it was a variant of the container update bug. "You are trying to move x units, but only y are available" or something like that, where it will not move y units but instead will completely fail. (Note, I'm not talking about destination space limits, but trying to drag a stack of 10000 when in reality it's only 2500 for example.)
The workaround is to shift-drag, and type in y for the number of units you're moving.

Thatmeans its not their anymore. normally u would think you dont have access to it but you do. its jsut a way of saying its not their. try asking your buddy to tell you how much is elft in it then drag+shift to the can. or get him to make a new can and he drags the goods accross so u can see whats left. or been putin since u opened it.

I get that occasionally. Warping out and back in always fixed that for me.
