[6.0 HF2] Assigned station traders don't trade

Post by ceue_08 »

Problem:
In a system "Reflected Stars" I have build a station producing Water (current price: 32Cr) and about 280k to sell in that station, I have assigned 5 M transport ships and 4 S transport ships as traders.
Right next to my station is a BOR station (BOR Factory) beeing build and needs 3k water (offers 51Cr), yet none of those traders are selling water, actually 7 of those just don't do anything except holding position.
Same right next system, buy offers above my selling price everywhere around but my traders just are asleep, been like that for hours, goods are not reserved just filling up my storage.

Solutions?
I can manually assign repeat orders, that works. What is the point in assigning traders at this point?

Thank you, I figured it out. What a nice bug, or maybe intendend but doesn't work in that BOR space currently.

So I have set to fill up drones for my station (All kinds, cargo, defend and repair) BUT as there are no DRONE COMPONENTS in the next systems (next one is 8 jumps away), they are all after a while set to trade DRONE COMPONENTS!!!
And so they are stuck, all 9 of them, I tested it with SETA (like 20minues real time) and they are all still stuck buying DRONE COMPONENTS that are not produced there.

:o :o :o
