FD just Nuked loads of trade routes!

Only if you've chosen the wrong station
This has been my experience as well.
People keep saying this, but that doesn't make it true.
Well there's your problem. 2000 units is not a high supply. More like 50,000 or 100,000 is a high supply.
Doesn't matter. If you want an anaconda you have a ton of grinding to do. Just because you are happy with your hummingbird doesnt mean everybody should be stuck grinding away for something else.

You don't actually trade do you?
He's not wrong. Even without Seeking Luxuries, it was quite easy to just use Thrudd's or Slopey's to find an unlimited route. Before I hit up and Tenche, I was running a 14 Ly 2700cr/t/rt that never dried up.
I hope that's in a hauler or adder?
80K isn't a decent amount in a larger ship. You should be looking at 100k+ per trip in a T6 or higher
the dude that called it the 'Haulercaust' was more right than he imagined. So many people running around screaming in a panic. Its actually quite hilarious to see the overreactions flying.
Will thrudds continue to work now, I should imagine it Will need updating a lot more often with supplies no longer being static?
Would you upload your route if its only going to give you a few trips of profit?
The whole point is that crowd sourced trading is now dead.
I think it was done to make the trade simulation a working simulation instead of static numbers that never changed.
FD should have done this from day one, then nobody would be complaining like they are now their gravy train is running dry, and they have to actually leave the 2 systems they were trade spamming!
Just another mistake by FD, unfortunately.

Again....no one is complaining about making trading more dynamic. Its the lack of functioning in game trade tools that is now the issue. Galaxy map tells lies and the 'export to/import from' telly you nothing. I'm happy to have to hunt down those good trade runs but I want something other than blind luck and guesswork to do it with
A job you have to pay to get in and pay to get acces so you can go to work at that.
That's a good thing. As long as third party sites dominate the way this game is played, in game systems will never be developed properly.
I'm agreeing with you.
I just meant to say, it should have been from day one, not 2 months after release.
People have got used to playing the game one way and now they have to accept playing it another way, even if the new way was the original intended way!
And get paid in the process. They have it all backwards at FD.
Slopeys tool used to scrape memory until FD said it was no longer allowed.
Can FD tell if people are scraping memory for trade information?
If crowd sourcing trade routes is no longer viable, will People with this software ability be at an advantage?
yeah, slopeys was great at pointing you towards potential trade routes, but I'm afraid that now it's likely going to be out dated. I used Roguey as well - not sure if the 'last updated' feature can give a hint if the data may be out dated.
Linkage below if it helps anyone.

I like playing that game with the blue screen. I miss the warning that you have performed an illegal operation though.
