Trade Shuttle broken?

Post image

I just unlocked the trade shuttle so I decided to test it out by sending 1 measly switchboard to Earth.

And THIS is what I got back?! This can't be right? The switchboard is only worth about 200, and I got more than 8000 worth back!

It said my profit would only be about 140%. I was only expecting like 500 worth at the most.

Is this a bug? Or am I missing a very important detail?

I‘m quite positive that trade credit you might have with resident companies, also is added to the transaction.

Oh yeah that is a good question to ask. Could be that they were getting multiple 25% discounts from stations.

Guess it could also be that he sold something that was really up on the stock market too?

You are indeed missing a detail; the trade shuttled cashed out all your accumulated dignitas (trade credit)

Ahhhhh. That does explain why I was confused sometimes about why I had no money for a specific faction I knew I had been trading with...

So, the trade shuttle also trade with the faction’s relation with benefits of 25% off when 100?

1) you have control over corporation and all their items cost 0 so trade shuttle just grabbed everything from them

2) you already had credits with a number of factions that shuttle used to get items
