cant trade metal

Post by tskaze »

by some miracle nothing went wrong with playing the galaxy version so far. the one small problem is that i cant trade metal ore for steel on biplane world. i buy some metal ore, go to the place where you trade it, select trade, but when i press page up its stays at 0. id be ok with this if i could travel to other systems using the starting ship configuration, but im pretty sure i need to buy somethin

i think that should work now.
i need to adjust the building data a bit to stop that building filling up.. will do that sometime this week, but it should have enuf capacity for the time being.

Can't Sell Steel

Post by Aequitas »

Thanks Mit, now we can trade for steel. Heres a new problem. :D I just tried to sell my newly aquired steel to the airplane factory and the truck factory and though both are pulling form the government treasury investment, neither of them has enough investment for even a single metal to be sold to them.

D'oh! :lol:

Yup. I specifically got the "this building does not have enough investment" message.

no they can't dont be silly!

Ultimately the idea is that the treasury isnt necessarily limitless - itd actually need to be replenished with credits from your galactic character, or from taxes n whateva else. All that kinda thing very unlikely to get done tho. (A fulltime job n then some)

Anyway.. fix for the current treasury invest bug is in the latest 0.1.29 servers - biplaneworld tested n all seems to be ok now. Sorry 4 the delay.
