Local Autotrade keeps failing 6.0 Vanilla

Post by Treycore »

I have 3 Mercury Vanguards in Argon Prime failing local autotrade for Refined Metals, have tried multiple times over the past week to get them to work

There is a station selling for 108 Credits and multiple stations with a larger buy order in the same system

Save was started same day as Boron Release, Emergence start, total vanilla

Confirmed same case as that detailed in this thread:

viewtopic.php?f=192&t=453338

Fix should be in a future update. Thanks for the report and the save.

Could you tell me if this also affects NPCs factions? I think I have an issue with the Borons but I'm not sure. I have the feeling that they don't have ships trading it... save_002.xml.gz

I found this one trading for the shipyard but so far no one for the construction sites.

I have the same issue with refined metals but with a 3 star advanced auto trader set to only trade refined metals. There are four hull part factory's buying 20k plus of the materials and the ore refineries are full with storage.

Same here, i've been trading manually in Segaris. Stimulants sold for 93 and bought for 194 yet all three of my M-Class traders seem to sit on the research station doing nothing.
I can queue up a bunch of trades but they refuse to act on their behaviour settings

Still no fix...

I'm using Fill Shortages. So far so good. I noticed they take a while to find trades but they are working. Some wares don't sell well like BoFu because the market is full and use too little. So a ship with Fill Shortages will buy BoFu, sit waiting for a while and eventually it will buy something else, having multiple wares in its cargo. So, yeah... When that happens I just remove the BoFu from the list and so on.

Now I don't find Local Autotrade that useful. Maybe because I'm on a new start. But the main reason is that there aren't many stations to do local sector trades.

PS.: If you are using Fill Shortages, use it with Blacklists. I use sector activity tho I don't know if sector travel would be better.
