Cargo when getting a contract. Bug?

[goto_KCM]

Hi!

I have a question about contracts and cargo.
Lets say, when i take a contract for bringing fruit from Paris to Old Danzig.
I have to deliver 12 tons.
If i allready have enough fruit in cargo on my ship, the contract would not recognize it and, more important, i couldn't sell fruit on the Old Danzig market. The sell button doesn't work.
So i have to sell my fruit in cargo and buy it new so i can deliver the fruit for the contract.

Is this a bug or a feature?

Regards
Andreas

It doesn't work like that. It doesn't work that way. You have to take the contract first and then buy the corresponding goods. If you already have the same merchandise in your cargo, it is not taken into account.

You will, however, be able to sell the goods freely (outside the contract).

Ok, sounds weird to me but ok.
