[5.10 HF3] Trade filter - add wares - doesn't show all wares = WAI

Post by user1679 » Tue, 2. Aug 22, 04:32

x4: 5.10 HF3

Bug:

The "add wares" dialog on the map's trade filter does not list all known wares**

** by known wares, I mean ones I've encountered in game, not every possible ware available.

Detail:

In my inventory I have some of each crystal mined from asteroids, spacefly eggs and herbicide. I wanted to see what station is buying these
for the best price.

First, I noticed none of these are in the "add wares" menu. Second, when I directly type them into the search box, all stations disappear off
the map. One would think this is because they're not buying these wares, but they are. In fact, I can land at any station and sell my inventory
of crystals for over 7 mil Cr.

As for the spacefly eggs, I am in a sector where those aren't illegal so I don't believe that's an issue. Also, I set the minimum volume to "none"
and the number of offers to 5 and I had "containers" type selected.

Those wares are not regular trade wares but personal inventory, they can be sold in person at a Trader's Corner for example. Many are also used in crafting.

As Scoob said, the map only shows station trade offers. It doesn't show inventory trades involving individuals on that station, and that is intentional.

Interesting, thanks.

I was trying to find the best place to sell the crystals when I noticed there was no category for them. I was under the impression that
anything that had a price would be able to be filtered on, I thought it was like the ship comparison window where you couldn't select
something until you actually encountered it.
