I am personally using this formula: jump range * 2 + emergency supply (jumping from enemies) and never had problem. Normally my CAGs carry 400 EC, but their jump range is only 15 jumps (and stations are always empty).

Exceptions are supply bases (own EQ, Saetan's Docks) - jump range 50, EC storage 1500 EC.

Yeah, I guess it's really some ECell issue, with increased ECell I experienced no problems so far.

BTW an another question: in X3:R there was a feature where CAG (or CLS?) could fly faster with half shiled with some extension installed. Is it still available in X3:TC?

I have fiddiled with every option and reset to default, I have all the software installed, and i read the whole manual... I cannot figure out why none of them will buy anything...

Loving the CAG mod so far, however I am having one issue.

For some reason the CAG's assigned to my complex refuse to sell a specific ware, even though it has passed the threshold set.

Argnu beef is sitting at about 95-99% (its an intermediate product) and I have the "Sell Intermediate Products" set at 20%.

If I read the manual correctly, that means that they will sell any intermediate products that go over 20%. So is there any particular reason they refuse to touch my Argnu Beef?

Thanks for any help,
Hektos

Just to clarify (and my sincere apologies, I'm sure this has been explained)...is the Commercial Agent only available in modded TC?

I'm a reasonably green X3-gamer and currently waiting for the superpack to arrive to be able to play again (I'm working in NZ and my copy of TC is back home on the other side of the globe in Finland)....trying to read up about trading to start anew in a month or two and get it right this time hehe...intending to play vanilla.

Actually you posted in the bonus pack topic of the commercial agent. Scripts of the bonus pack are signed by egosoft and don't cause a modified in your savegame.

Progress-M · Post by **Progress-M** » Sat, 25. Sep 10, 06:51

I see, thank you kindly.

I need to look around the forums a bit and read about bonus pack, scripts and everything hehe...a bit confused at the moment. =)

Hello - one question: I recently did a full re-install of X3TC including the latest version of the bonus package. Now when I load my safegames, I get spammed all-over with messages from my CAG's (and the few CLS's). What could have happened?

I know I have been running the original bonus package (where the automatic naming would get you a *modified* tag) a few months back. Could something concerning the messaging service have changed in this script?

I thought to start playing in my relaxed X3TC universe, but it's turned to total chaos! HELP!

I just noticed that Commercial Agents Complex Administration is not reporting silicon consumption values correctly.

Currently I have a complex with 3 silicon mine Ls on 3x 30 yeild asteroids, 2 crystal fab Ls (split), 2 Chelts Ls, 2 Rastar Ls, and a SPP XL.
The Crystal Fab Ls use 30 silicon every 8 minutes total.
The Silicon mine Ls (30) make 15 Silicon every 1:18 minutes total.

Code: Select all

Made/hr   Used/hr
692.31    225

Complex Administration reports:
Silicon Wafers (Production 11,538/Consumption 6,240)

The correct ratio of Production to Consumption right now is more than 3:1, but reported by Complex administration is less than 2:1. I've been using this to help control my complex growth, but instead it made me sweat the silicon when I didn't need to.

Edited: The correct line for Silicon Wafers I calculated to be:
Silicon Wafers (Production 11,538/Consumption 3,750)

I am of course ignoring the fact that in the English version of the mod the ',' should be replaced with a '.' but no need to quibble the minors.

Corrected: It's the silicon consumption value that is incorrect.

Can't seem to get the bonus pack to work. I'm using the newest version of X3 TC from Steam and I think I managed to point the installation to the right folder (Program Files (x86) - Steam - steamapps - common - x3 terran conflict). The version of the game I'm using is 3.0 and I have no other mods installed.

Can anyone help?

hogezz · Post by **hogezz** » Wed, 24. Nov 10, 03:24

I got it working in the end.

Lucike is one of a few modders that work clean.
It is safe to replace old bonus pack files. In fact you should do that.

A script takes care of the installation.

paulms1980 · Post by **paulms1980** » Fri, 31. Dec 10, 13:18

i think its ok! what i meant is i installed the seperate cag scripts b4 i realised they are in the bonus package! but i guess the scrips are the same neway! dont care if the game is modified as it already was! cheers
