Trade center scaling issues.

[Dragon]

Am I the only one having issues keeping ahead of the trade center requests? After the update it got even worse.

A35, almost everything in the expedition/residue shop have been bought, Whack complete. i keep my miners up to date every day to keep their mining power up to speed. pet lineup includes every type of buff with building speed 10%.

Issue: my trade proportions are now close to 100% of an outpost mineral quantity or close to a days worth of protein, and the ratio has been getting more and more unbalanced over the last few days. Miners can't keep up. i stopped leveling outpost "level" because miners are too slow (3 hardness and i'm getting <1%/hr on a level 460 outpost).
I have to use tricks when cycling trades by using lower Item level gear or hold off on updating them and perform trades first to keep the values lower. i'm at the point where most of my trades are spending souls (which i hate doing), skipping all but one protein trade per day (not enough), skip everything that doesn't convert back into minerals or i won't have anything to trade later/build with. I feel like i'm missing something or maybe this is intended to slow down everyone past A35? alot of these problems started showing when i hit E600 fries and the sweet potatoes got upgraded. Before this i could make up the difference with factory/protein upgrades after using all my trades up, but they have dried up.

Any ideas on what i'm doing wrong?

It doesn't work that way, trades generate the amount of stuff they need at the time the charge is generated. Not at the time you use the charge to show a new trade.

Oh, and don't buy to many sweetpotato +outpost upgrades. Outposts can indeed scale to high right now, this is supposed to get better (more means to get mining power) in the near future.
