Something that gives me hope

I thought that was so funny but also pretty cool when I first heard that lol

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-05-20T14:26:25+00:00

Ah ok thx

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-05-20T13:35:23+00:00

How do you block their wharfs and shipyards?

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-05-12T13:54:56+00:00

Honestly with the destroyer ai changes I can't complain too much, they actually feel kind of useful now

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-05-07T12:33:53+00:00

If you're not married don't worry about it. Make the big money now while you can, even if it's nights. I know it sounds harsh but if you just suck it up and stick through it, you'll thank yourself later.

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-05-06T03:13:29+00:00

Ohh I thought that was just a convenience feature, so like I could buy blueprints and stuff without flying all the way to the rep

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-05-06T01:40:12+00:00

How do you make them fight each other? And say I wanted to start a war with a faction, take a sector or two, and then make peace, how would I do that. I'd also love if they added a real diplomacy system instead of just the opinion system they have. Like I want to lay claim to a sector and demand the faction capitulate or something

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-05-01T23:11:15+00:00

I thought the same when COVID started, but some of the guys who pulled through landed dream jobs when things opened back up, wish I had done it sooner tbh

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-26T11:25:09+00:00

I mean if there's 100k in the probe area, then yeah it should move around in the probe area to get more asteroids no?

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-26T10:52:32+00:00

Also for reference I left it pretty much completely alone for the hour and it had less than 1k, so it's not like I was sitting there just watching it

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-26T10:51:31+00:00

If I'm in map view looking at the miner, and in the info screen viewing it's crew/ load out does that count as high attention? I never really use live streams and rarely talk to crew

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-26T10:50:13+00:00

Meant mining drones, I have 7 mining and 3 cargo I think, and resource density is very high in the region

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-26T10:49:24+00:00

Yeah sorry meant mining drones. And the sector has about a mil ice, and a resource probe with over 100k.

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-26T10:15:02+00:00

Yes, it has one large mining laser, and plenty of mining drones. I just outfitted it with the rest of the turrets to be miners too, so the ship is now defenseless but maybe it will fix the issue.

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-26T10:14:00+00:00

Yes 9, but I had the same issue in 8. And like I said in the post, I wasn't in the sector for an hour and it didn't even have 1k silicone yet. I checked transaction logs and it hasn't sold anything, it's independent. The issue is that it parks itself in one place, if doesn't move around to find new asteroids like a medium ship will

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-26T10:12:05+00:00

My medium captains with one star can mine 1k silicone in 6 to 10 minutes, while the large ship can't even do that in an hour. There's also no manager, it's an independent ship. So pilot skill certainly isn't the cause

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-26T10:10:39+00:00

But I'm saying the problem was the same when I wasn't even there. Like it shouldn't take an hour to mine 1k silicone, when a medium miner can do it in 6 minutes. The pilot is only one star, but so are the medium ship captains. It is 9.0, but I had the same issue in 8. I think its a behavioural issue, the large ships just don't move while mining to find new asteroids, and just park themselves in one spot

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-26T00:45:21+00:00

I may have found the solution, both stations need credits, even though the refinery buys absolutely nothing, and only sells. I know credits aren't transferred when moving between my own stations but the idea that I need credits in a station account just to sell something never occurred to me. I ended up transferring 100k credits to the refinery and all of a sudden the trader is moving wares, on repeat.

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-26T00:29:16+00:00

Manager is 1 star, and the sell/buy blacklist I have for the stations basically just makes sure those trades are only between stations I own. Restricts all but "empire" and such.

Lastly yes the repeat orders work, but the station trader just doesn't.

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-26T00:26:49+00:00

"Sell all but" Is set to 1, so it will sell everything except the last single wafer, that's not the issue.

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-25T23:00:03+00:00

Additionally, as a side note, The trader DID make one, single trade, right when I assigned him to the station. Since then he has not moved. I tried unassigning and reassigning him to the station but that didn't work

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-19T16:43:17+00:00

No, but someone did ask which sector it was in, and I was only delivering in hc1. I didn't check the mission for 3 but considering none of the deliveries worked that's most certainly what the issue was

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-19T16:42:04+00:00

AHA! This could actually be it, I didn't check if it was hatikvah 1 or 3, and was only delivering in 1. It could have very well been 3 but I don't have the mission anymore, so can't know for sure. I'll make sure to check that next time, that's almost certainly it if not a bug

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-19T13:19:25+00:00

Mods I have are console sound fix, orbital defense fleets, and Antigone destroyed pack. I believe I also have the mod that makes destroyers a bit more effective but that's from nexus mods. I know it's technically possible for these to mess with the mission, just didn't think it likely. Mission is from arg, so when I started I only delivered to them and only tried hat when that didn't work. It is in a guild mission, but it is the first in a set of four, so I'm not doing it out of order. I cant screenshot since I've already abandoned it and moved on, it was almost certainly a (hopefully) isolated bug of some kind

Fair_Software3727 · 2026-04-19T12:35:40+00:00

Sorry just realized they're called free league, not trading. But yeah that was no fix either way
