Trading

[Pamus Bing]

May I ask how many groups I have to join before trading starts? I have posted on so many forums about trading. Britannica is ready. Furybourg is ready. Finlanda is ready. This will be my last attempt to find out what going on. No one has said anything in world. Can someone please make contact? This system is using prims on two homestead Sims.

I agree it would be good if the first shipments would start soon. Perhaps Malibu and I can try to deliver a load this weekend. We have been building up quite an inventory in the AYC factories.

There have been several notices out this has been hard to get people to join into the game but we have finally coming into a more solid and unified vision. Many of us have been ROLEPLAYING and getting our trade runs in for months since Eddy announced that the game was officially open at the last meeting held in the Americas sim. You really need to get out and make some contact with other people rather than relying on the websites and groups.

Per the log of the last presentation at Tea at the keys the new Malta sim will be Trade central. There is a brokerage there with 3 bulletin boards, wanted, needed, and employment. Please visit there and post your wants and needs. People can contact you from there and set up your trade.

Also as of lastnight the money system is in play, please go to the Malta sim and visit the treasury office to get your money system. Instructions are included...you get the empty money bag from the 'bot' teller at the window then you need to see the Prince of Malta for your initial starting allowance. Follow instructions.

There have allready been 1 good event over this When Isodor sailed from Halfmoon to Malta
wiht 5 barrels and from Malta sailed wine from Malta to the new RAN HQ, and that wiht RAN escort required in the Combat Group chat, Its was a great good spontanius event, I dont now
if that count or was in right group or so, But good was it.
I think maybe that can be the issue, That people self try start some thing and hope other takes the challenge and get out and particpate.
At Port Safi we have set a trade dock up inside the vulcan crater, Sail tru the waterfall. There are 2 boxes people can ask be to borrow for trade exchange, delivery point. There are a table for use to trading agreement or filling out papers :). There are 2 Note Boards "Rumors at the Parrot" where people can set goods they have for sale, seek creews and so on, similar to that on Malta, All are welcome here :). At the Embassy for Port Safi and Port Salute at Shores there are dock and delivery point, My hope was also Norht could benefit of this.

I've made several trade runs over the last few months on lunch breaks. Announcing each time looking for Navy on the seas in battle chat. Last week I had navy respond saying 'ZzzzzzzZZZzz' so I got away with it! :)

[Bridget Jennings]

I will add a RAN delivery point tomorrow on the RAN HQ docks

[Bridget Jennings]

Oma I had asked the Navy to wait for he list of contraband itens and Deviants instructions on stopping shipping (and I guess the delivery point map

[Oma Larnia]

I had not heard of any instructions for stopping shipping. I believe a delivery point map...well should be discovered by some observation in world? And each merchant is going to have thier own delivery routes depending on the deals they make anyway. Obviously some delivery points are not going to be so easily discovered by Navy. :)

[Oma Larnia]

Oh yes the idea of some sort of validation of trading vessels for RAN?

[Bridget Jennings]

before attacking merchant ships (or smugglers). Even I get the promise info in final (not draft) form I will give my Captains instructions to stop smuggling and confiscate contraband (currently I am guessing even at what permissions goods should be set at to make the timed good aspect relevant)

[Oma Larnia]

roleplay trade goods should be set no mod, no copy, transfer

Also the timed good aspect is only relavant if the items are rezzed out, otherwise the script won't activate.

I have noticed some sort of bug though...Coldred and I have experienced some goods that have a timer set for 6 days but when we rez them they immediately disappear. It is still in some discovery mode now to find out the exact conditions where this happens.

I will remain part of the Trading RP, but be inactive for a while; I am still hurting from the loss of TSS (the breaking of a friendship). The horse events are starting to gather momentum, plus I need to find a direction since joining the RAN. Please use Britannica and Finlanda to trade, Also let me know what does not work on the Sims.
Thank you for your time
