I've been an on/off player for a while, but only recently started catching on to what's required to enjoy the game. A few times I've felt stuck on a contract's terms but have been able to re-read and figure out what I needed to do. Now I am stuck and need help I accepted a lucrative and seemingly easy contract: Deliver 26 units of vudka to the other side of known space for an insane amount of money. I had 10 units in my hold, picked up another 16, loaded up on water, and made the trek. Now I can't figure out who to deliver it to. What I've tried: - going to the exchange
- going to the spice hall
- going to the palace
- going to the star dock
- landing on the wild side
- exploring
- harvesting
- selling the 26 units of vudkaon the exchange
- leaving the planet and buying them back
- patrolling in orbit
- going to another planet and buying 26 new units of vudka in case it needed to be purchased first
- trying everything again with the fresh hold of vudka
Can any captains out there help me out?

I believe you need to leave the vudka in a wild zone cache. Also, welcome to the forum!

If you read the first mate's opening speech, he says this, among the other things: "You have the captains intuition, however. So the important things will be in bold red font. I believe that you had bold red Wilds button, there you had bold red Create cache button... which was what you needed to complete the task. Create cache and hide there 26 units of vudka. Just a small hint. Watch the bold red buttons

Thanks both of you, that was it.
Unfortunately I don't see the bold red any different than mosr of the other text. Darn color blindness!
I wonder now how much easier the game would be if I could!

The text font is different (bold) so if you watch for that, you should be able to see the change. Let us know if that helps!
