IIRC resources take up more space than supplies. In case you are concerned that 2000/7000 does not work out to 42% of capacity.

Also, did not know CS convoys loaded resources...

It says total load is 3000 of 7000, but also appears to say that the ship has only loaded 2000...

I get 7K of resources on a 7k cargo ship so I don't think that the resources take up more space than supplies.

It does keep trying to swap over to loading supplies, and I have been changing it back to resources, so you maybe right maybe it doesn't want to CS resources.

If I had to guess I would say it is swapping to loading supplies, from resources, using cargo space the supplies should take up but not actually putting the supplies on board, as it is not capable of carrying a mixed cargo. I do hope the AI hasn't just been throwing the supplies into the harbour.

As promised

I don't think that resources and oil can be transported with CS convoys, unfortunately. That's why it switches to supplies, been trying myself.

Techically, I don't think anything is wrong.

It would appear that the ship has loaded 2000 resources and 1000 supplies. The display is limited to two columns so supplies/resources and oil/fuel appear in the same column. Color coding (excuse me, colour coding) denotes which but only one can be displayed.

There really isn't a lot of room left on the TF display so adding more column does not appear to be an option.
