[Fixed issue] Some noob question about station buying/not buying resources

Post by DerStratege » Sun, 9. May 21, 22:56

Hey :)

I have some questions. I just build my very first station, an energy panel as I thought it is the most easy one.
The station also has an living habitat (some workers are already there), storages and a dock (3M6S).

Right now the station tells me (in green text) it buys food for 29 Credits and medicine for - Credits.
The station has none of both in storage but enough money in station storage (1kk).

So the question is, why the station refuses to pay anything for medicine?
My other question is, there is a blue 6corner icon on food and a yellow on on energy cells. No one on medicine.
When I press on it it is greyed out, i guess this means it does not trade it anymore.

I did not change anything in logical view.
Any ideas what this means?

Kind regards,
Toby :)

I would guess your station might have not enough money in the station account and there is no station or trading offer in range for medicine
For the icons i´m not sure myself...

Okay the station just bought food and medicine by foreign traders. There is more then enough money in the station account.
So, they bought them which is good. I still do not understand the price he showed.
Both productions are away from buying in as the storages are full now, so it makes sense.
But before that? Maybe some trader gave a signal he fills the stations storage with his load so he removed the price on medicine to
show he already is about to be delivered?

Yes, incoming freighters and miners reserve their orders.
