How much will a station buy?

Post by brekehan »

I saved up and bought my first trade ship, a Vanguard Vulture. I then spent all my money buying energy cells at 9 creds ea, figuring surely everyone wants e-cells. Fly to a station to sell at 14, but they will only buy 120 of the 6000 I bought?

How can I tell how much a station will buy/ what their current inventory quantities are?
Also, how to I see all wares they buy and sell rather than the top 3?

The trade screens normally have an indication of this, capacity is defined by the available station storage modules and the mix of production modules to at least some degree.

E-cells are a poor choice of commodity to trade in, as they are so ubiquitous.
