Usage of containers are such a pain.
eg. freight containers:
If you somehow use them and drop them inside a pos in you cannot take stuff inside and bring them back. They are such a pain because somehow too big for a normal industrial. They are pretty much useless and a waste of time to get rid of them.
Once you jettison them, almost unable to take back into the cargohold.

I dont want describe all circumstances but try to work with them with a jump freighter, its ridicolous how stupid it is to work with them.
Also you cannot put small containers into big containers to sort stuff.
You cant rename them inside pos.
The list of what you cannot do with containers but what you expect is longer then the list of what you can.

Please check this out and try to fix it.

Thank You !

Indeed, i'm still wondering why freight containers are in the deployable category. They can't be deployed/jettissoned/anchored in any way Roll

We need big boxes, 27.5k can is to small.

Or maybe the box is the freighter itself, idk Lol

Yet if a corp don't have the right freighter pilot, they're screwed, they can't deliver the containers to a POS.

Too many limitations on freight cans make them almost uselessWhat?
