trader & pack station not moving weapons/shields

[Soltreas]

I wanted to sell my surplus ... never sold one despite paying for trade route. Then wanted to move excess shields & spears to my neighbouring village, not a single one moved in a year.

Is this a bug? Is there a workaround?

(Game is all default)

Make sure you have them stocked directly in your trading post... i had the same issue, only 1 trading post was built and goods werent selling. When you construct a few more, directly next to your storage, it sould start selling. all trading post "share" their inventory, meaning traders only need to visit 1 post to ascess all of them

Thanks I'll try this.

I did notice I have bows, spears, shields distributed in houses, even though they are not needed by the levies (eg 4 archers but 5 bows in burgage). Not sure how to retrieve them from there..

The issue tbh is that the workers do not move them from the storage to the trading post.

I can't even get them from burgage to storage, never mind trading...

I think (my) burgages are bugged. In multiple games.

With regards to weapons and shields: if I have ever had levies of a type that uses specific weapons/shields (eg archers & bows), I will never get them in any form of tradeable/moveable storage. They sit in the generic storage of burgage, never picked up.. weapons/shields I have not equipped on levies, I can sell all day, so I think it is linked to extracting wares from burgages.

Just like I can have 200 apples in the pantry of a lvl 3 burgage, multiple families in granaries not peddling stalls, all members of 3 families "waiting", 10m away, yet they never retrieve the apples for the market or for trading. In my next game I will likely leave all veg/apple burgages at level 1, so the overspill is gathered...

I think I kinda/mostly understand how the market, granary, etc work. In my current game I have 65 families supplied by ~12 stalls in total (food, firewood, clothes). There is just a portion of the wares I cannot seem to get out of burgages.

If the bug is complicated to fix, I wish we could just get a "dump everything out on the street" button, so items can be collected.

you must "disban" your army, they will emtpy their wepons and sheilds into the storege, then your trader workers will pick them up from there, just make sure that you dont sell more sheilds/weapons then army units so, this is the way ive been doing it then rearming my army when im about to battle
