Trading sucks now...

[Flash Mp]

best route i could find isnt even half as good as the diamond/niobium run that was popular before the reunion mod.

And many items had their cargo space requirement doubled (notably human cargo), which really annoyed me.

So please, by next update, whenever that may be, lets get trading back on track:)

starting with:

Putting many of the increased cargo space requirement items back to their original 1 space per item. some of these are military vehicles, prisoners, ship hull panels, passengers.

lowering/raising some prices here and there.

:crazy::nyam::tease:

EDIT:

I just noticed I was making a pretty major miscalculation while working out the profit of routes, making it look like all routes in existance are low-paying.

Well with my very limited time to play I have made nearly 300 million since the new mod update.
Keep looking they are out there.

Sorry to say it, but we're all in the same boat. Learning the new routes is definitely a bit taxing, but I'm discovering more places now and opening up my RP to a whole new level. What does suck is when I'm on, there aren't many people to chat in system with to find more efficient routes.

IMO I'm glad there's a new economy because before it was just your set route and repeat. Total monotony! Now it's back to exploring again, meeting new pirates, new systems, all that.

Oh I do have to do this and I am sorry...

DEATH TO POWERTRADING!:yahoo:

Yay Change!

Buy H fuel from cali base(Tau-23), sell it at Dounby station(Orkney)
Buy Basic alloy from Dounby station, sell it at Cali base

well there is something wrong about that and that is your seeling commodoties of two enemys with each other. something which shouldent really be happening.

also mining is now back to how it originally was so...trading is still better than mining

It's called smuggling, ian, I do it all the time on my junker, between Rheinland and Liberty, or Bretonia and Kusari.

I hope you realise that the commodities which take up more space sell for more...

The new trading system is fine, we just need a little shift from blockade running routes between houses. There's no more A <-> B so you have to think a bit more before you get into your ship.

I would say trading now is interesting again.

You are supposed to work for your profits and not just hop in to the biggest ship you can find and set auto-pilot on.

Flying under radar.

Yes i've already taken that into account while searching for routes.

You couldn't find any better than a short A-B trip in the taus? I'm sure my smuggler route makes more money than that. Think one of my gateway ones does as well, you just got to look harder.
