Too many trips planned for this ship issue

[Vuyek]

First, this is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, as a trader, I want to plan as many trading trips for my ship as I want. IF the game has a trade trip number limitation, it should not let me plan the trip at all.

Second, there should be a big ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ CANCEL or change order button for your trader.

Right now the only solution is to edit the XML savefile...

This gameis ridiculous, broken, unplayable, disappointing, maddening, Berndt and his happy band of merry thieves can go ♥♥♥♥ themselves.

Still, I DO see promise in this game, especially IF the UI is fixable and changeable to a more manageable, user friendly entity, DESPITE the trolling Berndt saying it is a, err, "design decision".

Also, the ♥♥♥♥ happened to the words "BUY" and "SELL" in the trading UI?

Instead we have "Offers" and... ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ "A" man, we say BUY and SELL, you even ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up the English language in this game.

You can cancel trade orders in the game without editing the save file.
Open the ship details -> select the captain and open her/his details -> transfer money for buy orders back into your account -> select one of the trade commands and you will see a 'cancel all' button in the lower right. click that or press 4.

After that it will still say 'trading with...' in the ship details but thats only until he reaches his next waypoint. If you wanne speed up the process just remove the ship from your squad and add it again.

And by the way: The way trading is set up in this game orders and offers make more sense. If it confuses you (as it did me a little at first) just look at the top line of the trading screen. There it says 'wares sold by...' and 'wares bought by...'

Honestly, at this point, if it's anything X3 your after, don't even waste your breath on this, Limit Theory is already light years ahead of X:R, and X:R has no chance of catching up, ever.

No, I have not supported Limit Theory, but I have watched several vids of their game on youtube. Needs a few tweeks, and a few more features and such, but overall, is already much more polished than X:R.

Thanks Fuzzy, will try.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, there is a "CLEAR ALL" button which clears all the missions for the Raha.

Wow, that's new.

Acutally it's not. :\ It's been around for a while now. But the others are right, the depth of the trading no where near as vast as X3, and at times the trade ships can fault during a large trade order. It requires a lot more micro, but I already like that in general so It's not to big of a deal for me personally.

also im sure part of the reason for the trade number limit is that these trade values are supposed to change over time, and the ships aren't trading instantly, so its expected that by the time the ship makes those 3 stops, something could have changed, and as soon as u hear the first two trades done,just input another 2 and keep going, its not really that difficult

The game should hard stop/prevent you from issuing too many trade trips in the first place.

hmmm... I never managed to setup more than 3 orders.
I think that message you got is just badly worded and should probably say something like 'maximum orders for this ship already set' instead.

I think that message TOO MANY TRADE TRIPS means that the ship stops trading?
