Hi,
Here is what is happening. In Manual arbitrage, I am trading 5 goods. I set it up the stops for buy, and sell, start the auto route and it buys. When I go to sell each item, say beer for example, on the max setting, most of the prices in the market will change in the whole market when I sell, say 30 barrels of beer for example. If I were to select the 1,5,or 50 unit buttons, only the beer price will change reflecting the transaction, more goods in the market, supply is up, purchase price comes down. Is this a glitch in the system similar to the other one I had (which was all the sailors were gone from the taverns) or is this supposed to be normal?
Thanks

Hi,
What I am referring to is the changing of the prices after I have clicked the sell button, say for beer, in a transaction. I sell the beer, then the prices change instantly for all the goods, buy and sell, in the market. It’s really weird.
I have seen relational prices change, say if you sell beer then it affects the timber, sell iron goods it affects pig iron and timber. I also realize that it is a dynamic market, where the AI is simultaneously doing things. But watching the buy and sell price change for Pig Iron when your only selling beer? I would see the existing margin for Pig Iron get wiped out. Great before I sell the beer, gone after I sell it. No change in the quantities of the goods in the market except for what I just sold, only the prices. Reloading and using the 50 quantity though, only the beer prices would change.
I can understand 2-4 changing due to AI, but this was the whole board. The manual arbitrage is new to me, this is my first time trying it. That’s why I asked.
I didn’t have much time to test some other things. I would have liked to search the whole matter out, but I want to play on.
Your up river trick with the missions is next on my list. I’ve never captured a crayer or cog with a snaikka without cannons, so time to learn!

When I was reviewing Ugh’s 1300 save a while back, I was looking at how he named his ships and then selecting them to see what they did. When I checked a ship in Gotenborg, the ship was not visible from the screen. I didn’t think much of it then until something happened to me yesterday. I was in Gotenborg reviewing the ships I had at anchor there and was changing the name of one. When I started to search for the ship to rename, I noticed a name of a hulk I had captured but the hulk was not on the port view screen anywhere. I changed its name and put it to repair, went and looked at the screen again and noticed some others were missing. I went to the convoy list and they were listed there. I selected a ship in the convoy list and it sent me to the town marker. My info window showed me that I was on my selected ship. I selected it to go to another town and it left port properly. I do have the hide convoy ships button selected but these are not convoy ships. In the Ugh case, his was a convoy leader that does not show up along. Anyone else experience this?
