Lensmen is docked at the republic space station in system M-209.

The last move ya made all most sent me around the twist. With the renaming some of the planets.
This move has sent me over the edge and all most to state of drinking and smoking once more.
I have now got 39 tons of narcotics on board, ( 22522.5 Gal Credits which I paid ) with no were to sell. System M-209 was a good place to sell. Now I can not sell in that system. Seeing as you have changed this system for the 2nd time in less then four weeks.
Is this the (As usual with the old beast, there'll be a few loose ends that you'll need to take with a dose of beta-salt. ) you are talking about.
To make matters worst I have only 6523 Gal Credits left, and only a L24 system jump.
Man o man what can I do. Do I dump the Narcotics and make one hell of a loss or should I leave it in the hands of the mighty Crom to take the narcotics and return to me my 22522.5 Gal Credits.
Foot note: I would of made 674.7 Gal Credits profit if I was able to sell in System M-209.

Lensman docked at Imperial Space station
System : M-225 Ciius Minor.

I will see what happens in the next 24 hours. If nothing I may only dump 10 tons of nac's.
I will be staying in the M-225 system for a while.

That's unfortunate. Maybe they outlawed narcs just after you bought them... I'm sure you'll be having words with that station trader, he must have known ;)

While I could help you out from a gal god perspective, it'd be much fairer and more fun if you fix the problem yourself. Here's an itinerary that might interest you:

Buy a L40 for starters, and plenty of uridium. Then:

225 -> stardrive ->383 (about 17 parsecs)
383 -> stargate-> 259
259 -> stardrive ->214 (about 16 parsecs)
214 -> stardrive -> 59 (about 29 parsecs)

You might find more interest in your cargo out thataway :)

This may have been a ok if I could keep some of me cargo. But by the looks of things when I hit the confirm key all of my cargo will be dumped.
Ok I will fix the problem meself. I will put this down as one of those unfor seen hic up's, even the mighty Crom can not fix or will not fix. I will try and take it with a dose of beta-salt.

Um... I've no idea what you mean. You've got cargo, you've still got money, so buy a bigger stardrive, buy fuel, follow the directions and sell your stuff. Not too much salt required?

Let me see why did I dump cargo.
1. The cost of Star Drive L40 is 9950 cr.
2. I only had about 4500 cr. ( I was mad as a hatter not watching what I was doing, lost about 2k cr's )
3. I had no space for any other cargo.
4. Unless the cost came down below 4500cr for the L40 in the past 24 hours.
5. There are only 8 systems you go to with a L24.
6. Need I say more.

You have no idea to what I mean. Now you know what I mean.

While it has not been fun getting back on my feet once more. I have about 12 more trips to make before I make even. I is only about 6 trips away from getting me L40 star drive. Plus change over to keep on trading. So it is a good thing I do not beleave in Gods. Do not worry I is still mad at ya for changing the systems around or re-naming planets in systems.
Plus buying trade reports and finding out that you can not buy items, that are on the trade reports.
Here's hopping that it dose not happen again.

This was fixed in 0.50.4

Sorry bout the re-arrangements.. mostly this is done to fix bugs and balance the gal econ to ensure there isnt any too-easy trade routes making too much profit. Usually is quite rare.

What are you trying to do Mit send use players around the twist. Or are you trying to get use to buy the trade reports more often.
The reason being,is that, while I was checking the systems for that trade report. I noticed that the items that I had to dump 2 days ago, is back now and I can sell in the system.
So one must ask what is happing. Is this just one of those small bugs that pop up or one of thos unfor seen hic ups, in the beta testing.
Any how for now I is checking the trade report more oven and checking the space stations as well.
