zupur Posted June 4, 2022 Report Share Posted June 4, 2022 I played multiplayer with my friend last night. After I finished the pigeon upgrade, I could see the market of my ally (my friend) and I sent out two traders immediately, thinking this would be like in AoE2 and the traders would bring back resources but they simply stayed outside the allied market, didn’t have any intent in filling they cart nor going back to my base. I have watched the guide video and trader works fine in video. Was I doing wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan` Posted June 4, 2022 Report Share Posted June 4, 2022 You need to assign them to both markets. You might also have to research another tech for trading with other people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurken Khan Posted June 4, 2022 Report Share Posted June 4, 2022 @zupur My guess is you didn't properly establish the trade route. Both markets have to be completely built before sending your traders. Look at the tool tips. If you select your market and then right click on your ally's market, make sure the income is shown; then traders produced should properly work the route. When you select your traders you have to mark the two end points by right clicking on them; make sure the first time it says 'home market' and 'destination market' the second time. You can also assign them new routes this way, for example if you have another market or a port further away (longer routes are more profitable).

I'd suggest that this technology doesnt need the 3 traders to be researched. Its such a high requirement that you rarely see the tech researched 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emmabruj81 Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 Trading and gaming seem like two separate worlds, but gamers make good traders because their experience gives them skills that help when trading stocks. If you are not into video games, it's easy to dismiss the hobby as nothing more than just a "game". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion.Kanzen Posted June 7, 2022 Report Share Posted June 7, 2022 @FreagarachCould we have a movement in the GUI like call to the arms for traders so they can trade without having to assign routes all the time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
