What are the implications of error code 30000 on a player's in-game progress, persistence, and inventory in Star Citizen?

When error code 30000 occurs, players are immediately disconnected from their current game session. While Star Citizen features a degree of persistence, a sudden disconnect often means losing any unsaved mission progress, cargo acquired since the last save point, or items not securely stored. If the disconnect happens mid-flight, the ship might despawn, crash, or be lost, leading to an insurance claim. However, major inventory items, credits, and established reputation typically persist through disconnections due to the server-side persistence system.
