cschoch Posted October 2, 2001 Report Posted October 2, 2001 Can anyone fill me in on some jucy supply lines? For example, "Buy low here, sell high there". I'm looking to trade goods, but I'd like to know who wants what. Any one have any suggestions?Thanks!
Charles Lindsey Posted October 2, 2001 Report Posted October 2, 2001 Search for threads by Rico Jansen. He's the best at it. Fly to a station with an inlation rate. Sell some parts and junk to get starting capital. Go back to GAlcom where inflation is 0% at start of game. Buy more junk. Repeat. If you watch your station specialties you can get a bit more.
Rico Jansen Posted October 5, 2001 Report Posted October 5, 2001 Stop it Charles, you're embarrasing me. If I didn't have Navchart.pdf close by I wouldn't know what to do too.Check this one, which is mine. Or the shorter, more condensed version, which is this one from Riga. He based it on mine and made it for his new Indie trade-organisation.[ 10-08-2001: Message edited by: Rico Jansen ]

Supreme Cmdr Posted October 8, 2001 Report Posted October 8, 2001 hehe, some of you are in for a shock. Just wait... Oh btw, on the fleet mp servers, I'm going to enable the Station Commander career (disabled in sp) so that the fleet leader of a trader corp, can have access to that station as if it were as ship. It works the same as if you were on a carrier, except that you have access to the pricing and other info of your station's items. In fact, because the interface is similar, the only difference between a ship and station HUD, is the modes available for NID/TAC/CVD...of course, you can't fly the station, so your AE would have to do that from one of the fighters or shuttles.The point is that a trading corp can then have full control of their station's items and pricing (which they can change at will and override the game's values). So e.g. if an NPC docks and restocks the station, you can go in and mess with the prices. If a player docks, you can do the same thing etc. This will be MINIMAL functionality, so don't get your hopes up - it will be full blown in GCO.So, those of you buying and selling on a server, all I want to know is who has the cheapest OTS missiles for sale (have you seen the price of those things!!?!?)

peterkist Posted October 8, 2001 Report Posted October 8, 2001 You just gotta love that man Err, did I correctly read about that 'trading corporation' (he said in a humble voice...)
Soback Posted October 8, 2001 Report Posted October 8, 2001 SC, are you goint to have a character in GCO? If you will then will you start out with the same stats as anyone else or bump yourself up? On another note, I so want to be a trader in GCO and own my own station or two.
Papi Posted October 8, 2001 Report Posted October 8, 2001 Then start as a bellboy in some station and get your promotions one by one

And since they are just pure energy, I will be invisible most the time. And when playing that character, I don't need a ship either. If you ever see me in my assumed form, you're already dead.
