Some things I don't understand or I can't use properly.
When using the Witch-Space Fuel Injectors the amount of exhaust increasing distinctly changing from blue to purple.
When using the Thru-Space-Torus-Drive the exhaust disappears completely.
Is this right or a bug?
If it isn't, then why is it so?
***************************************************************
When using the Commodities Screen while docked I find that unlike the original game. I have no control over how many commodities I can buy or sell.
I just highlight the item/s and press enter and it will either buy as much as you can afford, then buy as much as you can carry, if you have lot of credits and cargo space, it will buy as much as they have for sale.
This way of buy is quite handy some of the time.
Though, other time I would like to control how much I buying by simply highlighting the item/s and pressing the + or - key to add or subtract item from my cargo hold.
The same things happen when I am selling.
It will just simply empty my cargo of the commodity completely when I am highlighting the one I am holding.
The main problem is that when I am holding cargo bay filled with 14 cargo canisters of Narcotics which I had purchased from one world for 54 credits per canister and would like to sell for at least 90+ credits a canister on another world. I have also purchased 21 cargo canisters of food from the same world for 2 credits per canister. Filling up my cargo hold completely.
I fly to another world and dock, I am able to sell my food for a profit because it costs 6 credits per canister here. I empty my cargo hold of food selling it all.
The narcotics are about 7 credits per canister here. Making it a huge loss if I try to sell them here. However at that price and with a cargo hold almost half empty. I am very eager top buy more narcotics here and be very likely to make a fortune off them anywhere else.
The only problem is that there is no option to hold onto the narcotics I already have while trying to purchase more.
What it actually does is that it sells my current hold of 14 Narcotic cargo canisters at a loss to me before replacing them with other narcotics I wanted I to wanted to buy there.
Is there now way around these options?
Is there a button I failed to press here?
Am I using the commodities screen correctly?
I think I have forgotten to use this properly or this section of the game is not like the original at all.
Even if I was able to buy the extra load of Narcotics while holding onto my original load. I doubt that it would allow me to keep them separated in my cargo hull in case I wanted to sell them separately.
In case I wanted the sell the Narcotics I brought for 7 Credits Per Canister at a world where they coast 30 Credits Per Canister and wanted to hold the Narcotics I brought from the original world for 54 Credits Per Canister.
Am I missing something obvious here?
