Trade range help

[LilTaco]

On the wiki it says "Merchants can only reach nodes at this distance from a cored province (or a cored province of a subject nation or a nation granting Naval Basing Rights)." I have a subject nation that is one ocean tile away from a trade node, yet it won't let me collect from it because it is not within trade range. It shows it as 240 current range away from us. The subject nation has a core on their own province, but do I have to have a core on it as well in order for it to count?

Ok, maybe what the wiki meant is if you yourself have a core on a subject nation it can effect trade range, but if only your vassal has a core on the province it doesn't effect trade range. Like for example a province you have a core in gets taken from you from a nation, you still consider the province to be a core part of your county. Then if you were to later vassalize the country that took the core from you, you would then have a vassal in which has a province that has your core in it. That would be my best guess.

WRONG vassals do NOT count to trade range nor do cores you yourself have to HOLD the prov unless its a CN i don't know why you can't accept that

Wow, jeez. I was just throwing around a suggestion for what the wiki said. No need to get mad.

Vassals are subjects. It says so on the wiki and in the subjects tab

Easy way to check: Starting game as Oirat, Mongolia is your vassal.

Mongolia has provinces in the Beijing Node, yet you CANT place a merchant there.

Tho you can once you have conquered and cored Mongolia.

Ok, that makes since, I had thought it was a wiki made by the developers, that's why I was trying to find the truth in it.

Isn't it even so that you need to have a complete connection from your trade capitol to the trade node in question? Like if your trade capitol is Venice and you no CB an opm in the new world, you still couldn't trade over there, because you don't have a province within trade range from venice and from that province to the one in the new world?

I'm relatively sure it was like that in some game version, not sure if it's still the case. But on the other side, when you play one of the colonizers, you got the trade range anyway or you couldn't colonize over there in the first place.

trade range =/= coreing range one can be bigger then the other well yes its pertty useless as if you take a prov/make a colony somewhere you get the trade range but i just want to point this out
