Hey guys, I'm having a little trouble with Freighters in FRED. I want to create a freighter that jumps in with cargo attached and drops its cargo at a specific waypoint. I have the freighter able to jump in with cargo attached but I can't get it to drop the cargo for the life of me. I'm sure there's a simple solution to this that I must have forgot, I haven't played with FRED in a couple of years.

There is also "jettison-cargo-delay" (Found under Change>Cargo) but I never used it

"When you work with water, you have to know and respect it. When you labour to subdue it, you have to understand that one day it may rise up and turn all your labours into nothing. For what is water, which seeks to make all things level, which has no taste or colour of its own, but a liquid form of Nothing?" - Graham Swift, Waterland

Thank you to everyone who replied! I knew I was missing such a simple solution! I'm happy to report that my Freighters are doing their job and the Terrans are establishing a new cargo depot to help in the fight against the Shivan threat!  ;) ;) ;) ;)
