Interacting with Build Storage

[DnBrn47]

It seems that we cannot do this manually and need an NPC pilot to transfer wares from the Built Storage of a station. Not sure if this is intended. Also, I can't for the life of me figure out how to set up offers from the build storage even though the UI suggests that this is possible.

If your station needs construction parts, and there is money in your build fund, the offers from the build storage will go out automatically. You can set the prices in the stations plan tab.

If you’re just looking to stockpile resources for future projects, I don’t think you can do that through trade offers right now.

I was thinking that you could sell them, but perhaps that's not what it's for. Not being able to trade wares manually is still odd though.

That really needs to be an option. I wanted to have a specialised build station on call, with slaved XL constructor and M freighters slaved to the constructor. Was hoping the XL would use the freighters to haul materials off the station to selected construction sites...right now they make no sense to buy

Dude I got so many credits ATM that before I'm done planning the build. I got a sector full of NPC Traders and at least 3 NPC Construction ships just sitting waiting for me to Confirm the build. Funny thing is, I got a Construction Ship. Cause why not burn 35-40 mil credits. As far as Supplying it. Why would I do that when the NPC will sell me their wares for 0 percent on the global scale. I just save my wares and sell them to the NPCs for more creds then it cost me to build the station. I'm guessing but have not tried it. Load the wares in the Personal Construction ship before the build.
