I've setup a scrap processing station in Windfall IV which is working fine, it's important energy cells from Avarice and then it is making scrap metal.
I have 2 Drill's set as station trader that are supposed to transport that scrap metal to my recyclers in Avarice however they are just sitting not doing anything at all.
The manager is 2 and a half stars so they have 2 sector range which is fine, but the trade ships assigned also don't buy any energy cells and it's only the ones assigned to the Avarice factory that are transporting those.
Everything is set to me only for the blacklist which should be fine, the stations have money so it's not that. From what I've read, having scrap metal as an intermediate is often the issue but in this case it's the end product so it can't be that either. The sell price is 318 which is the minimum and the buy price is 431 which is the max. I'm at a loss of what could be causing the issue. I can manually set a repeat trade order but I'd sooner they just worked properly when assigned to the station so I don't have to have a seperate fleet for it.

This is the Scrap Processor energy cell buy order: https://imgur.com/iNoMm02 - this shows another weird behaviour where they're only selling 1074 energy cells not the full 7900 they can bring

Anyone have any ideas what the issue could be?

Re: Issue- Miner set as station trader wont transport Scrap Metal
Are you using mods in your game?
If you check via map trade offers (scrap buy/sell and e-cells buy/sell) are them visible for both stations?
Sometimes wares moving from station to another can take awhile until it starts to flow. In quick look of those trades they seem to be ok.
And by the way - managers working distance is not sectors but gates so your ship in Windfall could operate 2nd Contact-Grand Exchange-Memory of Profit-Profit Center Alpha-Hatikwah's Choice area
