Commercial Agent - Trying to set Cr value at which to buy resource

Crimson Entity · Post by **Crimson Entity** » Sat, 10. Feb 07, 19:06

I'm trying to set my Commercial Agent to buy resources when stock is below 60% and when his home station has a minimum of 130,000Cr and I've entered the following "configuration":

{3} {1} {60} ....... For the 60% part

{3} {2} {130000}.....for the station Cr at which to start the buy.

When I receive a report. {0} {0} {0} my agent tells me he will buy at under 60% but whenever Cr are above 100 (one hundred)

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Is there nobody out there who uses this option?

Oh well, guess I'll just have to check in on him manually once in a while

Hi, Fellow Crimson

Did you hear a set of "bleeps", after you entered the commands?

3 <enter> 1 <enter> 60 <enter> "bleeps"

Input - {3} {1} {A}
Resources are bought when stock is below A% (default 80%)

3 <enter> 2 <enter> 130000 <enter> "bleeps"

Input - {3} {2} {B}
Resources are bought when the station's credit balance is at least B Credits (default 30,000 credits)

Have you tried to reset the trader, and re-enter the numbers?

HI Terre ! I thought this thread was going to be lost in the void somewhere!

Yeah, I definately hear the acknowledgement beeps, and I have managed to get he 60% bit, {3} {1} {60} "bleeps" {3} {2} {130000} bleeps, but the subsequent {0] {0} {0} command shows him buying at under 60% and when Cr are above 100.

Incidently I thought I may have posted in the wrong area of the forum so I created a new topic here : http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php? ... &start=135

Thanks for your time !

Hi,

I`ve now tried each command in isolation and together, and found that the first command works first time. But the second fails to get the right result, every time. With the same 100Cr result you gained. The frieghter pilot I tried all the combinations on, must have thought I`d gone mad.

This setting will not be adjustable in the current version.

Euggh, that's a shame, it's a great feature if used in the right combination with your freighter cargo capacity.

Thanks for checking it out for me, (I thought I was going madder than your pilot Terre)
