Hey everyone,

I have played the game now for a week or so and i love it. There is only one problem that I encountered with setting up a trading route.
I click on the ship, then I click on the trading routebutton and put all tasks in for that particular ship. I assign that ship to the trading route, let's say route 1, and let it proceed. Then the problem kicks in, the ship sails to the first warehouse and stops there!! :bash:
It won't load any goods it just sits there in front of the warehouse.
In the strategy map the boat is now assigned to the 2nd trading route! I could only solve it by reassigning the same boat in the strategy map to the first trading route. Can anyone tell me if they had the same problem or what i do wrong?
Thanx,

Bart

I do it the following way:
- select a ship, press the steering wheel button in the ship menu to open the strategy map
- click on the first warehouse. Press the > or < Button to select goods to be loaded (>) or unloaded (<). Look at the slider right beside the good: it signals how much will be loaded.
- click on the next warehouse, and repeat the procedure for the next (or the same) goods.

If everything is ok, your ship will be sailing the route without any further action from your side.

If you still have a problem with your trading route, try to post a picture of the strategy map with the trading route in question.
