Adv. Satellites and best buy/sell... How? [TC]
I have spent the better part of an hour trying to read posts and figure this out. How do I use my deployed Advanced Satellites in conjuction with the best buy/sell software? I can look at what each station in the satellites sector is selling and the prices but i am hopeing there is a way to select a sector that i am not personally in and see the best buy/sell for it. I read in one posting on here that the advanced satellite has and advanced menu with best buy/see but under my advanced menu it only has 'rename' my current ship has trade command 1 & 2, best buy & sell, trade system extension, navigation 1, supply command, and special command 1. Is there something i am missing or doing wrong?

If i have property in a sector i can click on each station and see what their current prices are, but what i am wanting to do is basicly select a sector and hit 5 and bring up the best sell price menu and see if that sector is a good place to unload my goods without looking through 10 stations one at a time. I also want to do the same thing with the best buy menu (6), i would like to select a sector and see if its even worth flying to at that moment. is there a way to accomplish this because i thought thats what advanced satellites were good for but i cant seem to make it work.

When u have installed in your ship the best buy/sell software (available at Teladi E.Docks, Terracorp, and a few more places i cant remember) in conjunction with the trading extensions software u can check prices remotely without landing at stations in the sector you are in or in other sectors of the universe, where u have a satellite. Just go to the sector, select the sat and then hit 5 (for best sell) or 6 (for best buy)
In TC. u can do the some selecting any ship u have in that sector instead of a sat, but contrary to reunion, the ship selected must have installed the best buy/sell software for this.

They made a change in TC from Reunion so the best buys software needs to be installed on the ship/satellite in the remote system, rather than just on your ship.mrbadger wrote:You don't need the adv sat for this. All you need is something you own to be in a sector and all prices are available to you.
The Advanced Satellite option only works for X3TC, not X2 or X3R.CidHighwind wrote:can you do that with any property, or just adv. sats?
The Advanced Satellite has this functionality built-in. Don't think you can install software on them, anyway.RoadRunner12 wrote:They made a change in TC from Reunion so the best buys software needs to be installed on the ship/satellite in the remote system, rather than just on your ship.mrbadger wrote:You don't need the adv sat for this.

Have a great idea for the current or a future game? You can post it in the [L3+] Ideas forum.

That's why you use the advanced satellite instead of the normal one as it has this pre installed. In Reunion, you only needed a ship or sat you owned to be in system and the best buys/sales software on your ship.
