There was no treasure in the treasure voy

We followed the treasure voy and it had no treasure.

You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch!

Could you be more specific? There were 5 tridents, spread out substantially, the first 4 of which were full of SSS and Lanthanic. The last one had nothing in it.

I followed the fourth one through a couple of systems, didn't see anyone, I dropped out in Latos. Assumed people weren't interested.

We went searching for the voy in Bractus and we only found 1 teradon, we followed it all the way to Sol but it was empty.

Yeah, the teradon had nothing. The tridents are what had the treasure. You guys missed out, I guess.

I waited 5 minutes or so after making the announcement before spawning any ships, and some of the ships took quite awhile to get anywhere, due to storms.

Also, if a convoy is announced to be coming from Bractus, I wouldn't go searching for it in Bractus, unless you're just waiting in B14. They don't stay in wormhole sectors for long, and you're unlikely to randomly stumble upon them otherwise.

We were at Latos I-8 so we were travelling along the path of the convoy but we didn't see any ships.

Also SSS is treasure? Really? You should put some built trident parts in there at least, SSS is considered more annoying to transport than anything. Treasure is IBA's or EHA's or DBA's, we want the real stuff!

I don't know. I didn't see you guys. You either gave up too early, or were too late. There were two teradons, so it's hard for me to say either way. If you followed the first teradon, you might have missed the other tridents behind it.

I can't yet group them together very effectively, because their charID is only created at spawn-time, and I also have to define their behaviour at spawn-time, and they're leaving before I can tell them to follow one another.. it's a work in progress.

Yes captain obvious, I am aware. But I'm working with what I have, and I solo-destroyed about a zillion ships last night and couldn't get them to drop any specialty cargo (I tried many different trident parts.. a LOT). I don't know why. There may be some table somewhere that limits possible bot drops. Ray is still traveling for the holidays. So, I went with something being better than nothing.

FYI: There's currently another convoy making its way from Itani space to Odia.
