@CirgCrag I messed around a little with Dub's Performace Analyser and had no issues in my test setup to see the harmony patches Call A Trader executes and they looked normal. No crashes whatsoever.

@The Village Guy I cannot reproduce your issue either. Everything works fine with 1.5 for me. I however updated the assembly build in the mod on steam because the previous one was build with one of the pre-releases of 1.5. Maybe that fixes it for you - but idk and idts.

It's not actually working with 1.5 for me, although it accepts call orders, when executing them the colonists change their mind and go do something else

this mod is incompatible with Dub's Performance Analyzer, more specifically it causes the game to crash when attempting for view harmony patches

It'll take some time for the Trader Ship to arrive.

And it is also possible that, if some other event triggers an effect that prohibits orbital ships from arriving while the ship travels, it will not be able to arrive at all.

Then you are out of luck and need to call them again later.

If you dont wont that roleplay part (the cost, the delay, the lockout period) you can set all of them to 0 in the options.

Ok. I tried this again. This time the notification asked me what kind of Trader do I want. Then... nothing happened :/
PET 8 May @ 2:17pm 
I think that was the problem. I didn't had the silver. This was weird because the game just directly told me I need 600, but it only did that AFTER I called the ship. So I was locked out for 25 days.

@PET
You need to have a working orbital traders beacon set up with enough silver in its range.
Then the grayed out payment options will work.

This is a requirement to than trade with an orbital trader anyway.

How is this thing working exactly? I called for them and I got a message that it will cost me some silver. How do I pay??

Hey @mefalemoncola,

I see what you're getting at there.

But the royal trader is a special mechanic as a trader which is intentionally restricted by the game.

Changing that is not the scope of this mod so I won't add this as a feature here.

One could however implement another mod making the royal trader just a normal trader type. Then it should be automatically compatible with call a traders feature set. Maybe there is already a mod out there doing that and you can find and use it.

Regards
