Default Crew Companion Limitations

Running into an issue on CC where I've reached the max amount of trades allowed (18). The reason I have so many is trying to put in a criteria pickup for "day turn on this day that pays at least 7 hours" and then also "day turn on this day that pays at least 6 hours" basically saying I want a turn that pays at least 7 but I will settle for one that pays 6....this is taking up ALOT of my trade space. Is there a better way to make a single critera pickup and just say "Give me the highest paying turn on this specific day"?

How about putting in a trade for 6 hours or greater? That way it captures the 6 and 7 hour trips that you want….

He’s trying to set it up so that if there’s both a 7 hour turn and a 6 hour turn available, it’ll give him the one that pays better, rather than just accepting either.

Exactly. I'm trying to work extra next month since I got a line with a ton of days off (not used to picking up) and this seems like a pretty nasty limitation to CC that I wasn't previously aware of.

That is two trades. Are you saying that you are putting in the same thing x9 for different days and you want an additional 9 days of flying? Or do you want just a few more days? If it just a few more days, then just using a work block and days=1/days total = x may work to lesson the amount of trades.


The only problem is that it will fail if not all of the trips in the work block meet the pay time criteria.

I know, and he's bumping up against the limit. So something is going to have to give……

You know you can do trip trades within CCS right? I have no idea if that has the same restrictions or not.
Or, just buy into the trip trade mafia and you will be taken care of.
