CIG this is the most efficient way to load a Hull-C Manually. It looks silly!
TLDR: Basically just load an ATLS onto a Nomad and use the ATLS instead of any other tractor beam. It's stupidly faster to load the Hull C than by any other tractor beam.
Since 4.8 began I have not any success with autoloading but manually loading works just fine.
By hand it takes Forever to do large Hull-C Contracts. Even with the Hull C's tractor beam its just so slow.
Done solo or in a group, using an ATLS on a Nomad is by far the fastest way to load the Hull-C. I have raced people loading with the Hull-C's tractor beam and maxlift tractor beams and the ATLS + Nomad combo is so much faster. I've completed large hauling contracts and even considering the time it takes to load a nomad and bring the ATLS out its worth it over moving 200+ boxes with the Hull-C tractor beam or by hand.
My main feedback is that it is very silly that ship tractor beams are still so bad in comparison to the ATLS.
Also doing Hull C hauling contracts manually is NOT worth it at all for either rep or UEC when compared to other hauling contracts.
The only solution I can think of is the make the ATLS tractor beam the standard and implement it onto ship tractor beams in a way that is safe for the ship. They just need to hold the boxes further out than the ATLS to avoid colliding with the body or let us trigger ATLS mode with a secondary button.
