Since today I noticed a strange behavior with an MTU.

I was flying an Obelisk with a MTU in the cargo hold. I decided to launch it but when I tried to scoop it back to the cargo hold I got an error message:

"The cargo of this class of ship can only carry a container of this type if it's packaged"

I was only able to scoop it back with another ship (Miasmos)

When I tried to put it back in the Obelisks' cargo hold (when docked) I got the same error

Anybody else having issues with MTUs (since todays patch (?)

As per some pieces of feedback in one of the issues threads it appears as though the fubbed up the code for MTU's somehow. Not sure how they would have done that unless they were changing something with it that didn't need fixing.

People were getting errors when trying to put ships with them in their cargo into ship arrays.

Tnx for the feedback, looks idd something is not correct. I couldn't find any information on changes in eg changelog so not sure what happened

We had the same issue last night we was unable to scoop the MTU with the obi....

We had to use miasmos's for mining which is a game breaker for us..... our corp often runs mining fleets with 8-10+ miners and use the obi as our hauler trying to haul this amount with a miasmos is basically impossible.... we had to stop our op and do other things...

potentially lost alot of isk....

I can confirm this problem/error and it is new.

I tried to access the fleet hangar of my bigger ship using an alt flying a catalyst to move a MTU. Both pilots in the same ally, both in a fleet. I got the error "containers in fleet hangars can only be moved by the captain". Normal items like ship equipment could be moved like normal.

Thx,
