Re: General trading thoughts and tips

Re: Rare limits

The rare limits are a range value not an absolute. While many (including myself) record the maximum limit we should record the range in the spreadsheets. The range is player dependant and varies over time, I have never come across a time when all the rare stations I visit are trading on lower number...

Re: Ship and credits gone

Here is to hoping the roll backs work - i hate exploting a game, especially if you then boast about your new ship/stuff. If you feel the need to exploit/cheat dont rub other peoples faces in it please (afaik not OP, just adding it on here) Glad to know they are also taking it seriously on the race t...

Aye the bug works both ways, some people loose ships/credits others keep theirs even when the sell stuff. Basically a database issue as commie said.

Was still mostly on topic :P

Re: Ship and credits gone

A few members here as well as a bunch of players in general used this as an exploit to make millions in a few minutes. Im pretty disappointed by this, especially that our players did it knowing full well what was happening. There seems to be noone at FD and perhaps noone will be there for some time...

Re: General trading thoughts and tips

I thought traffic reports were commanders only or was that inaccurate?

Re: General trading thoughts and tips

I'm not having much luck finding a refinery and extraction systems to trade between, are there any other hints at good trade in other commodities... I'm at a system where the system map says it imports Gallite so I go to the station and it actually supply it at HIGH I go to the next station in the ...

Re: General trading thoughts and tips

Although there are NPCs trading at these places, there are no other commanders in the area (including in open play). And I've run dozens of trade tests, and it really feels like a shell game. I'd almost swear that they look at my cargo and then decide the prices. It goes something like this: Cargo:...

Re: General trading thoughts and tips

Thanks for the tips. I tried them and they work. The best I was getting before was 1200cr/t for a 2-jump route. My problem is that trading seems to be rigged. I had one trade, on-paper, that was going to be 2550cr/t, but when I showed up with cargo, I only got about 2070cr/t, and that only lasted a...

Re: Mining, worth it?

I've mined today 2 hours at a pristine metal ring (brown rocks, not gray) in my new cobra with a 3 bin refinery and 26 cargo slots. Result 65.000 credits. Is this a typical result? It seams low but as a starter every credit is welcome I was doing that (well in a hauler) ages ago; it got better when...
