Debit withdrawel? What is this?

Post by Gregorovitch »

I can't find any reference to this in the log. I've seen it two or three times. To the tune of several hundred thousand credits so....WFT is it?

Wages I think. I believe your crew has a regular pay from you.
1. Please do more on NPC civilian/uniform variety, and bio customisations, Devs.
2. Stations need sirens/warnings when enemy is close in numbers or Station in danger of destruction (in Sandbox).
Yes, for immersion. Thankyou ahead of time. (Edit: This is actually happening!!!)

Lol, two "I think" posts.

The game really needs better documentation.

Your traders withdraw money to buy goods that they then sell on for profit.

Indeed. When I see "Debit withdrawal 312,000Cr" without any further explanation and see my balance has indeed just been hit for something like that this is no laughing matter, I start to ask serious questions, I expect serious, indeed definitive, answers. Lol. :twisted:

That's plausible. Are you sure or are you guessing?

there's a mod on nexus mods that will show debts from auto traders in the player log. I recommend it!

Well we could speak assertively (without being honest and saying we `think`) like we know for sure and lead you completely up the garden path. At least we`re trying to help!

Maybe next time we won`t bother, I know I won`t.

When you have autotraders buying some things to trade and they arent linked to a station it uses your money balance directly.
what is currently a bad thing you dunno which trader did it and just later see trader xyz sold things for amount X.

its a bad way to implement it and already in the past there was mods that was fixing it.
personally i dont get why they didnt use a system like it was used by mods in the past which worked fine.
in your log files you can just see the income from trades but you dont know if they made a profit at all and if they did how much.

i have seen one mod in the forums that is fixing autotrading but its kinda cheating also with being able to use self created temporary anomalies ( the creators way of jumping ) to make em being able to instant sell something far away.
if you dont mind that check the mod forum personally i think without the teleporting it would be fine but with it i wouldnt touch it.

I wasn't trying to be snarky, Socratatus, I was trying and probably failing miserably to be amusing. No offense meant and apologies for any taken.

That looks good.

@Mr_Cossack: yeah, that looks like a pretty definitive answer.

Why you gotta be so rude with people trying to help you out? Right now there's no definitive answer, only other people's observations. Read what they said and check to see if it's true or not instead of expecting all your answers on a silver platter and complaining if it's not what you wanted. It's actually quite easy to figure out by yourself, you just have to watch the notification pop up when a trader buys something.
I don't mind you expecting definitive answers, but be less toxic about it, if you don't mind.

That was a good hint but it would have been better with a name to it like "Player Tradeship Buy Notifications".
