Then you didn't meet some other criteria.

i didnt have the perk in that game

You aren't invited to join an AI's trade guild if you've already created one yourself.

the ai that got the perk was a fanatic xenophile and spiritualist

the other federation members also had fanatic spiritualist and xenophile

i was in a federation with an ai that got the acension perk, but i never go the event asking me to jobi their trade guild, i then took a look at their relationships with other nations and only their vassel had the guild master modifier. (i was playing as a xenophile / fanatic spiritualist empire)

The blurb already answers your question.

Establishing Foreign Export Routes
This is a bit trickier, as these require a neighbouring empire to have a colony with a Trade Station. You will only begin to get foreign imports from neighbouring AI empires when they construct Trade Stations. And they will when they can.

EMPIRE EDICT
Expand Trade Opportunities
Planets in neighbouring empires with the necessary tech will have increased chances of constructing planet-based trade buildings, thus potentially making more trade routes available. Potential trade partners who do not yet have the Interplanetary Trade Initiatives tech will be given it.

When you take the perk, all your subjects, allies, federation members and any empire you have a migration treaty with will be given the Interplanetary Trade Initiatives tech. Your subjects will automagically get a Trade Station on their homeworld.

Anyone who doesn't already have the tech, you become their Guild Master. If they already have the tech, they become Guild Partners. This is reflected in their opinion of your empire.

well I do this and no change happens on the opinons. Do i have to have built some trade stations first?

Acension Perk: TRADE GUILD
To expand your trade empire into a Galactic Trade Guild you'll need the ascension perk: Trade Guild. See the slideshow.

To take this perk you will need to complete the Diplomacy Traditions and have the Interplanetary Trade Initiatives technology.

When you take the perk, all your subjects, allies, federation members and any empire you have a migration treaty with will be given the Interplanetary Trade Initiatives tech. Your subjects will automagically get a Trade Station on their homeworld.

Anyone who doesn't already have the tech, you become their Guild Master. If they already have the tech, they become Guild Partners. This is reflected in their opinion of your empire.

The perk will also give you access to a third foreign export route from a planet and will improve the production of any trade buildings.

I just want to know if the guild part of this mod is still working, I am not sure if I have been testing this right. If it is still working could i have an explination on how to make a trade guild?

Read compatibility.

Is this mod (Traders) included in the Alpha mod 2.1? Or I have to subscribe each one them? Thanks.

@Hexagoros Yes there's requirements and restrictions on the tech. As with many things in AlphaMod, not every ethic is going to be able to pursue it. You need the vanilla Space Trading tech and have started the Prosperity traditions. You must also be some degree of Xenophile or Pacifist.

Is there a requirement/restriction on the Technology? Because I can't get it to appear, and I've used the updatetech command like a hundred times now. :/

Its still have that problom just test this one out

Gotta love mod breaking updates.

It used to but when I tested it with 2.1, it was gurgling with errors about invalid ship templates. I haven't re-tested it since.

Only if it was a was to get this to react to your routes. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1310670900&searchtext=trade+ships
