Sounds like a Sensor Problem. Did you try different Trade Ports? And on which outpost did this happen.

seems like the Trade Post, Helios Wheel Trader, and Mahriane Industries Trader.............but those are the only ones i have come across. been trying to mess with it for the last few days.

Yea, cant get the stations or trade ships to detect my ship for trading

yeah. no ships detected, terminal offline is all i see as well, andromedary trade ship, and other stations. basically all trading is broken.

And with starting pidgeon so sparce on parts, rather difficult to get started refining or making anything... so mod in general is unplayable without trade

For me the terminals are online, but trading hasn't been working since last patch for me, not a big deal since I found a big ship wreck providing me with all the metal plates and grids I need and pirates keep flying head first into my asteroid, so there's more resources from that :P

It's certainly not unplayable, quite the contrary, but not being able to trade was a very minor inconvenience before I found a way to defend myself against those pesky pirates.

The 2.15 Version of the tradescript is working, old ones don't comoile because of changes in the ModApi

I updated the XMC - 718 <Trading Outpost> and could trade again. However tools were not sorted properly and stayed in the deposit crago, so my credits were going up forever. Other items i tested were fine, as were tools in the ATI testworld

................so just add this to my mod pack and trade will work??

no, you have to add it to the progamable block on the station, edit station name and tradeport
so it only works if you spawn a station yourself and edit it

Trade terminal button panels do nothing inside trading stations, so i cannot even manually drop and pick up stuff... if the fix is each and every station needs to be edited, then wow.. thats a lotta updating :(

So I could reset all blocks to no ownership; then replace the Progamable block. Rename/edit the block and it should work; or will it only work if i spawn station/ship?
....Let me give it a try.....

you have to change the station name and tradeport number in the script aftere you load the new workshop version into the programable block

I just spawned the station, never tried to take ownership of one, on the wokshop page of the script are links to blueprints

Cool...... Thanks Jock2 for the tips Ill start working on that I just started using programable blocks so this should be a fun way to practice and look into how the trade AI script works .........again thanks

trade? you mean you dont just go take them and rob their stuff lol if anything trade ships need better protection including a self destruct

Is there any change for a fix?

I think so....... but it will take some time give it a few weeks or so. they will have to fix the error in the trade script. then implement the new script to all the trade ship. its a lot of work just to have keen Software House change/break something else in a few months.
