Idle freighters

Post by Kumppi »

As far as I understand freighters should pick up goods from your mining stations and return them to your spaceports, right?

My problem is that my freighters won't visit any of my mining stations no matter how much there is need for certain goods in the colony. In fact they only come to live when I colonize another colony and only then they make trips between the colonies never any mining stations. For me this makes the game unplayable because it's only a matter of time before my colonies are stripped of luxury goods.

Am I doing something wrong?

Kumppi, check the other threads on economy. (There's a few!). People are having problems with the economy and the team are releasing a patch to sort it out, hopefully by Sunday night.

That's the same happen to me, anyway. The freighters doesn't go to take the mineral resources from the mineral and gas stations.

A suggestion maybe it can be nice to have tankers for gas resources
