[Oceania] Conditions for Transport Contract options with more than 500 log points?

Post by Magirot »

In my first Oceania games, I saw these options for Transport Contracts. However in a subsequent game I've only been able to choose 500 point contracts. Does anyone know what are the conditions for the others appearing? Or were they removed in a patch?

Port level doesn't seem to be the issue: The screenshot below is from a lvl 2 Port, while in my current game there are lvl 3-4 Ports. The MTHs also have fewer ships in the screenshotted game.

I have a similar experience and have been wondering the same. I hope someone can shed some light on this.

If the MTH has to many Ships already serving Contracts it will have less tonnage available to offer you.

Thanks for clarifying. So the behaviour in the screenshot is probably a bug in the older version (they were offering those 32 000 point options even though they had overcontracted their capacity).

What confused me was that the buffer needed was much higher than just having 2500 spare tonnage. I ran a test game and only the 500 point option was present until there was well over 5000 uncontracted tonnage, at which point the 2500 pts option appeared. Maybe some options between 500 and 2500 would be useful.
