Station production budget and Trade rules

Post by Stadus »

Stations that have goods that can be imported cause the station's "Expected operating budget" to go up automatically. However, if a good is set with a Trade Rule that limits trades to your own faction the station still behaves the same way with its Expected operating budget.

I am submitting this as a bug because I don't think the station's Expected operating budget should go up when there are no expected trades from other factions.

I would like the option to either manually set the "Expected operating budget" on the Account Management page or to individually exclude goods from it on the Logical Overview. Because of how it is currently implemented using the "accept all estimates" button on the Account Management page is a huge money sink with no return for the convenience of using this button, if you are trading within your own faction.

This is a feature request not a bug report, and it's not specific to the Public Beta, so moving it to the main forum.
