Station build missions reward lower than station cost???

[Einheit 101]

Hello, i can accept a mission where i need to build a paranid station that costs me 1,4m credits to buy and the reward for this mission is 1,2m credits... Whats the point of that?

Yeah I've had the same issue. https://i.redd.it/6c9vdqgwpbz61.png

This is while at Max relations with the Teladi and a Master Industrialist (24/31) trade rank.

Yeah this mission you can't really make profits unless you have an agent giving you a discount, what looks really like a bug to me.

There was no change to these missions in X3FL, so they are working as in AP. I'll still have a look and if its safe to adjust might do so for next update.

MFG

Well maybe you did not changed the missions but surely you changed something about the cost of stations at some point cause this never happened to me neither in TC nor AP.

The only way to do some profits on those missions is to put an agent to negotiate a discount with the race. And even with the 10% discount it's not always enough to make profits as seen on the screen. (Discount isn't activated right now, but you can see even with 10% reduction i couldn't ear money on this mission and i'm quite hight both in teladi rep and trader rank.)



Hope this could help.

is this in RC2 ?

as the station prices have been adjusted

[Midnightknight]

Nope was RC1 i haven't rebooted the game since you made the new version. Will check right now.

Yeah it's only 4 187 592 credits now for the station. So not a bit gain but a gain. Thank you for RC2.

I've noticed for some missions in RC2 you get a lot of money compared to the purchasing cost, but for some missions it't not much of a difference (maybe even lower payout than cost, don't remember the details), I think it's dependent on the difficulty rating of the mission, hard and very hard seemed to have a better net payout than the easy missions.
