**SC-LOADMASTER** Take control of your Star Citizen cargo runs. SC-LOADMASTER is the essential companion app for cargo pilots who want to stop doing math and start making credits. **PLAN YOUR CONTRACTS** Select your ship and set your maximum container size, then build out your cargo manifest entry by entry. Add collection points, delivery locations, commodities, and SCU amounts with smart autocomplete that knows every location and commodity in the 'verse. **OPTIMIZE YOUR LOAD** Once your entries are ready, organize them into route cards grouped by pickup and delivery location. SC-LOADMASTER automatically calculates the most efficient container breakdown for each route — showing you exactly how many 16, 8, 4, 2, and 1 SCU containers you'll need at a glance. No more guessing. No more wasted space. **TRACK YOUR CAPACITY** Running totals update in real-time as you build your manifest, turning red if you exceed your ship's cargo capacity. The remaining capacity counter on each card keeps you from overcommitting before you ever undock. **LOG YOUR RUNS** Save completed deliveries to your log with a single tap. Every run is automatically timestamped and stored, giving you a complete history of your cargo operations sorted by date. Browse your history across paginated entries that keep things organized no matter how many runs you have under your belt. **MANAGE YOUR FLEET** Keep a registry of all your ships and their cargo capacities. Your fleet populates automatically in the contract planner, so switching between a Constellation and a C2 is just a tap away. **BUILT FOR STAR CITIZEN** SC-LOADMASTER is designed specifically around Star Citizen's cargo mechanics. Every feature exists to solve a real problem that cargo pilots face — from container math to route planning to keeping a record of what you've hauled and where. Stop calculating on paper. Start flying smarter.
