Starting the distribution

a quick guide on how distributors work

Basics

After finishing the quest and getting your first distributor, you will need to purchase a Distributor's desk in one of your hideouts (any hideout).

After placing the distributor in the desk, you will be able to add dealers to the distributor's network.

The distributor can handle up to 4 dealers properly, with each additional dealer lowering the sale speed. Distributor can only handle dealers up to 500m away from him, so it's best to spread your distributors in different locations.

For the most basic distributor setup you will need:

- Distributor's desk
- any table (for tray)
- laboratory tray (to unpack goodies)
- some containers to store the goodies

Collecting money

Distributor starts collecting money from the delegated dealers soon after you give him dealers to manage - talk to him at his table to collect the money from him

Supplying your dealers

In order for distributor to supply your dealers, you will need substance storage and some unpacked drugs in it

!! IMPORTANT !! your distributor will start distributing drugs to your dealers ONLY AFTER THEY RUN OUT OF THE STOCK YOU PREVIOUSLY GAVE THEM

Distributor does not give your dealers a big package like you do (*wink*) - instead, the dealers magically teleport the required goods from the substance storage of your distributor whenever making a deal

Example 1, this dealer will NOT be supplied by the distributor at all, as he still has weed & amp from my drop

Example 2, this dealer will have amp supplied to him by the distributor, but not weed yet (needs to run out of it first)

any chance the 20% in on top of the dealers 15% so 35% sales tax basicly? or does distributor take the 20% and the dealer gets no take?

@Heck if I know

did the distributors sell the same amount as the dealers, or did you just take 1 random day into account?

your dealers might be pushing meth a lot that one day, while the next day they might be selling weed mostly

this is not really a game where you get same profit every day, because every minute yields the same profit - profits depend on the demand of customers

if you want to compare actual profit, put like 50g of the stock you want to sell to both dealer and distributor and compare the profits then - distributor should have 20% less due to his fees, but not 60% or so

You still have a point on a 500k sale the distro takes 100k

Are you sure you got the math right "heck if I know"
They take 20% not 60%.
There is a chance your sales were diferent I.e customers buying 2g or 5g.
And the time you took the money from them.

@GrumpyOldMan --My distributors are not selling any of my mixes. Are you sure they are not selling your normal inventory? (if you're in a crafting house) Because they will sell that instead.

[GrumpyOldMan]

My distributors are selling my mix just fine

what quest?

[Arth]

walkie talkie isnt in the game

[TUTNIXGER]

Does anyone have a clue for what you need a walkie talkie and where you can obtain it?

[Busi]

Should be noted that currently the distributors do not work with mixes, its a bug and being looked into
