Gold ore at 250 C at every Base SP - Smaakerchef - 07-12-2012
Hi there
i recently downloaded discovery freelancer 4.86 and installed it over a fresh install of the original game. everything ran smoothly so far, but now i stumbled across a problem i appearently am unable to solve on my own.
it seems i cant sell gold ore for more than the base value of 250 credits at any base. i tried every station/planet mentioned by several guides, newer or older, and i get the same result everywhere. im playing open singleplayer and never connected to any server up to now. im aware that i might just try to edit the corresponding files to reap profits, but i'd rather just use the original prices.
any ideas what might be causing this? or how to fix it?
thanks

It is SP. That is how it is setup. Prices in Multi player are set by devs. SP they are all basic.

the local config files just have default prices everywhere. multiplayer pricing is set by the server. if you know you will never mess with multiplayer, you can edit the system INI files and set the prices to whatever you want. another option, maybe, is run the server locally and connect to that.
disco is a multiplayer mod, first and foremost

alright, thanks for the replies. i wasnt aware that those prices are normal in singleplayer. guess im off editing the ini files then.
but why are just the ore prices low? all other commodities, including the new ones, seem to have trade routes worked out...

Other commodities' prices are controlled by the code in the market_commodity.ini file. Ore prices are set by FLHook independently. So ore prices can be changed on the server without changing files that requires a new mod release/update, while the rest of the commodities (and equipment and ships, for that matter) cannot. You get no prices in single player for ores because those have to be set up independently from the mod's files that you downloaded.
