Hello fair wormholers.
We've got a PSA for you all and I would appreciate it if you spread the word among your fellow frontierspeople.
With the new scatter mechanics introduced in Odyssey, if someone loots a scatter container and does not have enough space in their cargo hold to fit the result, their attempt to loot will be unsuccessful.
We have been noticing a lot of these unsuccessful loot attempts in wormhole space, and believe that it is mainly occurring with ancient relics contained in wormhole data and relic sites. The sleeper hull relics are especially tricky as their 100m3 size means you need a significant amount of free cargo room to pick them up.
We believe that this explains the reports from some wormholers that they are seeing fewer hull sections dropping. Hull sections are actually appearing in the scatter containers twice as often as they appeared in the containers pre-Odyssey, but many people attempting to loot them are doing so with less than 100m3 of free cargo bay.
We are investigating ways to make this interaction between the scatter containers and your free cargo space more intuitive and easier to manage, but in the meantime we strongly advise those people looting wormhole relic and data sites (especially the talocan ships) to ensure that they have plenty of free cargo space.
TL:DR When you're looting scatter containers in wormhole space, have plenty of free cargo space available or you'll miss out on the high volume stuff. Game Designer | Team Five-0 https://twitter.com/CCP_Fozzie http://www.twitch.tv/ccp_fozzie/ |

Mr Kidd wrote:Why don't you just make the scatter loot, when looted, just drop to cargo cans when there isn't enough cargo space? That way if there isn't enough space, the players can always come back after offloading?
That is one of the things we're considering yes. Game Designer | Team Five-0 https://twitter.com/CCP_Fozzie http://www.twitch.tv/ccp_fozzie/ |

We know that there are definitely other issues causing the talocan ships to not drop stuff, and we're getting closer to finding the cause. We'll keep you guys updated. Game Designer | Team Five-0 https://twitter.com/CCP_Fozzie http://www.twitch.tv/ccp_fozzie/ |

Hey everyone. Team Kuromaku has identified and fixed a problem that was preventing the hull sections from dropping in many cases. The fix will be deployed in Odyssey 1.1 and is on Sisi now if you want to investigate for yourselves and let us know what you think.
