Kronans Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 probely it was close to the top 25000 after that it goies down to 1 even if you look at one price someone can have sold it and it gone to that level. then you only get 1g/wood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skully Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Nevertheless the transaction should either execute at the offered price, or abort. It must never continue at a different price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenris Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 I have noticed some kind of "disturbed" mechanics in Compass Wood trade also. A consumer port with very high consumig rate(1400 Units per day) is almost empty, has only 400-500 units at warehouse, but this port BUYING Compass Wood only for 1 Gold??? So players put contracts there, and nothing really happens as far i can see.(For now).So, either some weird thing happens there, or am i as a new player, just unable to recognise what is going on? A picture... If there is some kind of "fix" needed, i would appreciate it.Otherwise i apologise for the "noise". Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason why it says you can buy 402 compass wood for 1499 is not because the town is selling at that price and has 402 in stock, but somebody has put up a sell contract which has 402 compass wood left in it. That the town buys for 1 gold indicates that it's consumption has filled up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This town does not SELL, it BUYS Compass Wood, as you can see it on the screenshot.Players put contracts there, because, NOTHING HAPPENING, because they hope they get rid of their stocks, because the town is empty.This port stock(402) is players CONTRACT in the port.He wants to SELL, but port does not BUY, only for 1Gold per Unit. This screenshot was made today, and yesterday in the evening it looked the same. LOL? Edited July 6, 2016 by Fenris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ink Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Captain, click on button to expand the list, in this case a player contract (selling 402 pieces of cw for 1499) has been shown on top, the port storage already exceeded 25k limit which you can check in the list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean Ribault Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 (edited) SinsDzavv: At this stage in development, I would recommend you sell your product in stages, i.e. first buy up the contract for the exact amount, then refresh and see what contract is up next or if it's a port sale and how many they have. There may be 1 or 2 more contracts even behind the first one you just fulfilled. You also have to pay attention to the 25,000 limit if it is right after the buy contract you just fulfilled. I have sold thousands upon thousands of many goods in so many locations, and the only glitch I have ever seen by the port calculations (and I am pretty sure even this is now fixed in the game) is that it used to miscalculate the sale price if you sold over 1250 units of something. So I never sold more than 1250 of anything at a time, and I still do it that way out of habit, even though I think it's fixed. But I recommend you also use your calculator whenever you do a transaction to confirm beforehand anyway. In your case you stated above, I think you likely got a false sale report in the dialogue box by the port, and I agree that should be fixed in the game, but ultimately I'm guessing like others above it likely happened because you didn't sell in stages and buy up the contracts first to see what was coming up next. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DEVS: You should be able to fix this confusing transaction behavior in the sale window and break it out for the player who wants to sell their product in bulk like that. In your confirmation window, for example, if we were to sell that 854 compass wood and there was that one contract there by a player for 402 at 1499 a unit, and there was already 25,000 stocked by the port, then why don't you write something like this for the player before he has to agree to sale: - Sell 402 Compass Wood for 1499 each, totaling 602,598 - Sell 452 Compass Wood for 1, totaling 1 - Total sale 854 for 602,599 - CANCEL or OK ....Or if the port is not 25,000 full then the above example should read: - Sell 402 Compass Wood for 1499 each, totaling 602,598 - Sell 452 Compass Wood for 1500 each, totaling 678,000 - Total sale 854 for 1,280,598 - CANCEL or OK I recommend you make this change to fix the confusion.

Ink Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 To clarify - If a player wants to sell cw to a port, he has to check "Sell" column, if there is the 1 gold price for a piece then noone else buying in the port except the port itself (with overexeeced ammount of cw already), use refresh button before you start to trade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenris Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Well..finally i have realised that a port buys from contractor as well, starting of course with those who offer lower prices. Took some time to understand this.Could have ask in the game too. I apologise for the fuzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skully Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Well it worked for me, do not ask how..What you might be seeing is a player executing the buy and subsequently executing the sell. Try it out in a port with little traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
