Cargo Crates go to NPCs <=> Merchant Contracts (Animals) go to Outpost
- meaning: Contracts can be delivered at Sovereigns
- but: No warning from Sovereigns if selling at wrong Outpost
  - At Traders: "Our shipping records indicate that this assignment is scheduled for another Outpost! Are you sure you want to sell this?"

Payout
- No degradation = 7/7
- T3 = 5/7
- T2 = 3/7
- T1 = 1/7
- Special Delivery = +50%
- Expired Cargo = -50%
Expired Cargo cannot be sold to MA
Degradation:
- Cloth: 3 Buckets
- Bottles: 20 Jumps / 4x Cutlass Slash / 2x Pistol / 1x Blunderbuss / 2x Blunderbombs
- Care Instructions
  - "The client has requested the bottles be delivered in an unbroken condition."
  - "The client has requested the bottles be delivered in an unsoaked condition."
  - "The client has requested the bottles be delivered in a healthy condition."
Voyage Cargo Runs: 1 Halfth Normal Cargo, 1 Halfth Mythical Cargo
- Founder Cargo: often 2 of the same type (Cloth, Plants, Bottles)
- Executive Cargo: possible for 2 same crates (e.g. 2 regular Plants)
- Cancelling Voyage: no effect on Gold payout. (Reputation?)
Bottle Cargo Runs: 6 Mythical Crates
Medley Cargo Run: 4 Mythical Crates
Emissary Quest
- 1st Parchment: 4 crates (= Executive Cargo, but *Special Delivery*)
  - Collection: often at Outpost Trader where Emi Quest was claimed
  - Destination: Outpost where 2nd quest starts
- 2nd Parchment: 2 crates (= Founder Cargo, but *Special Delivery*)
  - Collection: Outpost of 1st Quest's destination
Burying
- Partially buried Cargo appears visually unburied after leaving the area
- Plants do not wither while buried
- Buried Cargo will disappear after diving to new server

Founder: small island, 1 species
- ex. T4+T1 / T3+T1 / T3+T2 (maybe: 1x T4/T3 and 1x T2/T1)
If crates are lost/sold, they will not respawn at Island
Bug: not the proper animal on Island (workaround: Trip to Ferry of the Damned)
