Faction Question..

Hello, I've looked around the forums for this, but have not been able to find it. I started doing a trade route involving going to Montezuma base, got my factions for outcasts, rogues, hackers, etc to neutral, so that they don't attack me on site.
But soon as I'm either almost to Montezuma or just leaving it, one of the outcasts or someone else there will scan me and tell me to drop my cargo, blah blah. Turning the base hostile towards me, killing me, etc.

How high exactly do you have to get your faction with them before they stop trying to rob you even though you are neutral? Or is there a such a point you can raise it to? Worked trying to get everything to neutral, and finally did only to be attacked after they scan what I'm carrying. Thanks in advance.

Hmm, I think they'll always tell you to drop your cargo, I'm not 100% sure, so someone please correct me if i'm wrong.

They surcease coercing to transfer your cargo when you are friendly-very friendly with them. NOTE: Police/Military will ALWAYS can your cargo.

Criminals will stop ask for your cargo when you're green and almost green with them.

Although you can try some tricks to stop them from taking your o so precious loot...

1) you can drop the cargo; not CLICK drop but manually then retracter it
2) ignore them and dock with the nearest base quick
3) " " trade lane, gate

There are many more; try different ways or search the forums

Death to the salad eaters!
