[SOLVED] Orbital Trade Problems
I have a storage zone with about 3000+ silver surrounding my orbital trade beacon, but when I try to trade with an orbital trader, it keeps saying I have no silver whatsoever. I originally thought it was an issue with LWM's Deep Storage, but now I'm not too sure.

It's on right?
The beacon?
They require power.

Is the storage area home-zoned? Also, did you turn the mods off and test to see if it work without the mods before you posted?

I haven’t had a problem using LWM’s shelves around beacons, although there are occasionally hiccups when multiple pawns are attempting to access the same storage.

I’ve heard of other mod conflicts that required the beacon to be reinstalled. I don’t use minify everything but that could be a cause.

I’d try these thing (disconnecting first):
1. Eject the silver from the shelf - if it is inside the beacon’s zone it should get spotted.
2. Reinstalling the beacon and/or moving a new beacon to the location.

It's in the home zone, and I've gone through all of my storage related mods, with no luck.

I've already tried that, with no success.

Is it just the silver?

As far as I can tell. I can still sell my animals and whatnot.

I can assure you it's the real deal. I suppose I will just have to stick to the regular trading until I, or someone smarter than I, can figure this out.

Is your coms console and trading beacons on the same power grid?
Do you have a powered orbital trade beacon within range of the silver? Is the silver forbidden? A beacon needs to be powered to allow your traders to trade the items within its radius. Also, the items should be un-forbidden.

Screenshots might help.

Beacon's in range, powered, and everything is allowed.
