1.32 station not using own wares for construction

Post by X-Series »

I was rapidly expanding my station and to save credits I decided to build my own hull parts production but it seems that the station would rather order from other stations than use its own wares. Is there any particular settings that I need to change that I do not know or is it a feature that the game lacks?

Stations have station storage. In-Build stations have building storage. Move your station storage to the building storage with a freighter.

I don't think that will be changed. From a database design this makes totally sense. Especially since that prevents your station putting up sell offers for your builduing storage goods ;)

Thanks for the info. They could have placed a priority to autofill the building storage first for the needed wares before filling the station storage or add a ware transfer button/slider to transfer wares not for sale.

As I said, from database design that makes totally sense. You just use a copy of a station DB part and everything is fine, no problems, no bugs.
But to have all those safeguards etc. in is a lot of work, especially since the Ai has to use it. Just look how they didn't even prevent that the station storage can get so full that the station cannot get needed parts to produce more :o
