Re: [Audyssey] smugglers trading screen
some are patrol, ie, you fly around several points. some are transport, ie, you buy some goods and take them somewhere. Later on you get lots of sorts of missions as well. One idea that's been floated around the nielsbauer forums is the idea of other trading style missions where someone asks you to fetch a specific object for them, - but these haven't been implemented yet.

Re: [Audyssey] smugglers trading screen
Again Liam, this might just be a pure perception thing. I've found that doing missions and making extensive use of the sensor screen, particularly with the advanced tracking and bounty hunter abilities, you can't half make money fast. taking out any of the corvet piloting enemies you can earn 16 K a pop, and for any of the serious pirates you can get 32 K. I will also say, the tougher the enemy and the more stratogy your using to defeat them, the more interesting I tend to find combat gets. Again though, different people like different things, and these are just my thoughts. Beware the Grue!

X1 x10 etc refer to the units of the good to be bought or sold, and the buy, sell, buy all or sell all will do the selected actions. The only problem is, that screen only shows the goods for the selected planet. In order to see the prices for the goods on the various planets, you need to close the screen, click once on another planet in the travel screen (to highlight that planet, but not a double click otherwise you'll travel there), then open the trade screen again. this unfortunately makes planning trades a very slow process. Visually, once you click on a commodity, the prices for that commodity are displayed next to the names of all the planets on the travel screen, but sinse a screen reader is focused on the trade screen you can't see them. I've suggested to Niels that he create a minimize button for the trade screen so as to close the screen, but keep the selected goods prices on each planet, but this idea's stil in the works. I must admit though, I've always personally been much more interested in the bounty hunting and mercinary practices of the game, so haven't really looked that deeply into trading. Hth.
