Do my trasnports buy from my factories?

Post by Russia2012 » Sat, 2. Jun 12, 17:17

I have just built a solar power plant in seizewell and I am wondering if my factory transports buy from my plants . I have the price for them to buy set at 9.00 and the price to buy energy cells at 9.00. I have about 20 mines ore and silicon and I have one solar powerplant

Your transports will by from the factory with the lowest price, whether it is your or the the other races.

You can set your transport to perform a manual trade run which will transport a set amount of product from one station to another.

You can also use the Commodity Logistics Software MK2 to set up a trade route. (the software is part of the bonus pack)

I don't know how you managed this because the absolute minimum buy/sell for ecells is 12! Unless you are playing X or X2 which I have never played. (Yet).

EDIT:
Ignore above comment. I've just read another of your posts where you state you are play X:BTF. :)

As this forum covers the complete spectrum of six X-games, it is helpful if you mention which game you are referring to,as the games gradually evolved over the decade or so since X-BTF.

(And yes, I am guilty of not doing so sometimes. :oops: )

The advantage of letting others know what game, is that those with a good knowledge base can help better to sort any problems or questions.
