Yet Another Trader v2.03c (XR 4.00)

Description
IMPORTANT : If you use YAT v1.2 stop your ships (recommended) and remove mod. This is a new version not a drop in update.

What is it?
============

Yet Another Trader is an automated trading and mining script.

Changes from v1.x
==================

This version of YAT is quite an overhaul from the original. The UI
is completely reworked, custom (if simple) trade finder ai makes a
better profit for the player, no more individual trader wallets that
could be wiped out on ship destruction, ability to whitelist via
placement of tradeagents as YAT will now only trade using data held
on the Skunks trade computer (shift-T).

YAT is currently intended for X Rebirth 4.0+

How to use it
=============

Set up trade agents on stations you wish to trade with. YAT includes
an option to remove these from stations you wish to blacklist. To do
so, select the station through the map (can be done remotely from any
location), open comms and select 'Cancel Trade Offer Updates'

Assign a ship to Yat control - Comm the ship/captain and select 'Assign
New Superior', 'Trade Manager' then selct the task 'Trader' or 'Miner'
assuming the ship is capable of carrying cargo and has at least 1 or
the appropriate drone types. YAT is compatible with M, L + XL ships.

At the configuration dialog, check the details for range, home zone,
refuelling and ware type(s) to deal in.

Homezone is the pilots base of operations. In practical terms, if you
set a homezone to a trader or miner before they start working they
will go there before begining their main task. handy if you want a
ship bought in devries to trade in ol only for example. (Shout to Sparky
for the idea). Homezone is also used by mining ships when selling their
wares on a galactic range. In this case it defines where the ship will
return to after selling before starting to mine again.

Once running, contact the captain and select 'New Order' to select
YAT options : 'Configure', 'Stats' and 'Stop'

YAT will automatically stop when you talk to a ship dealer to upgrade,
sell or repair that ship. It will also stop if you assign that ship to
a new commander including the Skunk or order the Captain to 'Follow me
again' or 'Stop Task'. Any credits held by the captain for trades will
be returned to your wallet.

When changing a YAT ships options, the new settings will only take effect
after the current trades in its queue are finished. These can be seen in
the ship details dialog. Stopping a YAT trader with any of the above
methods will clear the queue instantly.

YAT traders now deal with cash directly from your wallet, but will never
spend more than half of your current balance. It is advised to run only
one trader until you have a good bank roll behind you.

YAT traders will not show up in manual trade dialogs.

Is it intentional that the L/XL mining ships (not gas) fly around like the L/XL gas mining ships ? Asteroids are not crushed with the mining laser and collected by the drones. The drones fly around like the gas mining ships and collect "nothing".

mod working. My bad. Problem was in incorrect translation commands from english to my native language interface.
Also found an issue - canceling trade agent dont seem affect trade offers from that station. But its not an issue of that mod as it fairly remove agent. To actually stop offers from issued station I've ended up atacking it. Hopefully it will help someone else.

This may be a timely moment to add: I haven't maintained this for some years now. Feel free to unpack and update it!

@aladinaleks I unistalled X Rebirth => deleted game folder from steam location => reinstalled game => switched off internet connection => placed "yat2" folder previously downloaded from workshop => launched game => ensured no any other mods in "extensions" folder except "yat2" and 2 DLC => started "Aspiring merchant" == no "'Assign New Superior' to 'Trade Manager'" options at owned trade ship, no additional options at side bar.
What I did wrong?

How can I initiate that mod working? There is no any side menu items containing anything similar to that mod (seen at YT video about v1+, there was "YAT trade" list of item or something like that). Captain also do not have dialogue points listed at mod description page.

Tested at new free game as argon trader without any mod installed except "Yeat another trader". Mod downloaded and autoinstalled via steam workshop.

What should I look for to activate it? Should I get some soft from traders or something?
