so I was playing X4 and having a grand old time. slowly but surely the economy stagnated and not very much was happening (and I'm sure you all know what I am talking about. What "fixed" it and got things really moving again was I flew to the equipment docks, warfs, shipyards and trading stations in my trusty elite and deleted all the storage cargo with the cheat mod. BLAMO! suddenly loads is happening! Can a knowledgeable person make a magic button which deletes a whole bunch of trade wares throughout the universe? It only took about 20 mins for ships to be build-able again so it doesn't kill the game or anything as all the other stations had full wares stored up. It looked like all the combined products of all the other stations in the universe only partially (10% or so) filled the shipyards etc so in a short while they will need new resources and so on.... many hours of cool stuff to happen now.
