Note: Before doing this, run to the target systems and add the orbital defence system to priorty list or use another ancor, also add the bases and supply stations

1. Deploy all shuttles with the AE in Shuttle 1
2. TacOps, command->shuttles-> fly to-> supply station of base
3. Order all shuttles to halt upon arrival
4. Take Shuttle one to base, dock and buy commodities
5. HJ to ODS
6. deploy cargopod with the goods to be transfered,
7. order a shuttle to pick them up
8. repeat steps 4-7 until all shuttles(including yours are full to desired amount)
9. TacOps, commands->shuttles->all-> fly to-> ods of destination base.
10. upon arival, set all shuttles to halt
11. Take shuttle to base, dock sell commodities.
12. jump to a full shuttle.
13. get into other shuttle.
15. repeat steps 10-13 until all shuttles are empty

use this tatic to use multiple shuttles for trading

becareful when moving commodities from one shuttle to another, and be fast. Don't let another guy grab your cargo

Quick guide to 'mugging'.

Step 1: Deploy a shuttle and order it to collect the Transport ship that stole your cargo pod

Step 2: There is no step 2.... I guess you could blow up the transport and see if it spawns an extra cargo pod.


Note: Mugging only works on ships that already have cargo on them, i.e. ones that have collected a cargo pod(s) or have cargo on them from a script (like that Droidian Nightstar in the BC3K campaign)
