AutoTrader (automated trading)

This is a "fire and forget" version of Mkess and BurnIt's "old" MK3 Universe Trader.

This is a "fire and forget" version of Mkess and BurnIt's "old" MK3 Universe Trader.

It differs from the original and my X Return version in many ways. Because some players

Finding that the initial version had too many "cheats", I added a setting that included

Various options to set before and after AutoTrader activation.

Before you decide to install, please read the following instructions, especially the new setup options for version 0.3.

Short description:

AutoTrade works on any undocked and

The NPC ship that runs the command (i.e. waits by default). This is a new situation as some players have reported issues

If the ship has order batch or docking.

To start the script, select the ship, right-click to display the context menu, and select Comm

to talk to the captain. There is only one option "Automated Trading Menu". Once clicked, a submenu with options appears:

Automatic trading: select that and the captain will receive an asterisk "*" after his name to indicate

The script is running. Please be patient as it may take a while before Autopilot moves (depending on the settings you selected). It is strongly recommended that you do not

Interfere with the vessel or captain in any way.

AutoTrade Settings: This will open a settings menu with various options that can be selected in

Feel free to pass "Comm". Any settings you choose will be confirmed by the captain in the player log under "Maintenance". All settings will be displayed along with regular profit messages (see below). The following options are available:

"Jump" (default true): Enable/disable jump. If you disable it then autotrader will

Use travel mode to fly, if not capital (L/XL) boats, then highways.

"Preferred player station" (default true): Enable/disable player station trading priority. if

Enabled (default), then autotrader/autominer will prioritize serving stations owned by the player. When disabled, all trade agreements will be treated equally to determine the best deal.

"Know all trades" (default true): Only enable/disable trade offers and systems known to the player.

When enabled (default), autotraders/autominers know the entire galaxy. If you decide to disable this feature, be aware that this may cause autotrader/miners to be idle for a long time until you find a system with resources (mining) and a site that offers trading.

"Trade all goods" (default true): Enable/disable trading of space weed/fuel and maja dust. this

The option (naturally) is only available for autotraders, since there are no illegal items for autoplayers. If you don't want your automated traders to get in trouble with the police, disable it.

The set parameter values ​​will be displayed in autotrader's log report. You can change the parameters at any time. Changing the settings again will restore them and trigger a confirmation log entry. Also note that he will charge a service fee (***) and use your points for transactions. his skills

The higher it is, the higher the fee, but the more efficient his transaction is. He will trade or mine for you without having to

Any further action (so no fire and oblivion occurs). When you select AutoTrade, the Captain becomes:

AutoMiner If there is gas or liquid storage on board, the captain becomes an Autominer,

AutoTrader If the ship has container storage, then the captain becomes the Autotrader.
