Thanks for the helpful mod! Does Burnite Crystal need to be updated? The mod says the average price is 250,000, but Roguey's site says the average is 125,000. https://roguey.co.uk/x4/wares/inv_crystal_05/ I'm at a trader now offering 149,000 and the text color is green, which I believe tells me that it is a good sale price.
I don't know if any other items were added but this is the Kingdom End update for trade wares <t id="7101">BoFu \(101 Cr/4\)</t> <t id="7201">BoGas \(73 Cr/4\)</t> <t id="7301">Plankton \(18 Cr/1\)</t>
- Open 'X Rebirth Tools 1.11' (.cat decompressor) (links on the description page) - Drag ...\09.cat in it. - Extract the chinese file. Must be one of the t/0001-l08x.xml - Use a xml editor to open it (Free editors: XML Copy Editor or FirstObject XML editor). - Just take my file as an example and copy/paste the prices (ex: \(1014/30\). - Replace my file by the one you made in ...\extensions\average_prices_in_transactions_screens\ - That's it. It could help others if you publish it. Just a suggestion.
Bit of an issue - you can't just type (for instance) 'graphene' in the search bar on the map any more. You need to type the whole shebang, like 'graphene (166/20)' for the game to recognise it as the trade item you're looking for.
I never use the search box because for longer names like Superfluid Coolant or Missile Components, etc, it is a bit faster to use the Trade Filter rather than to type them with one hand. Egosoft should allow to typing only part of the name like Grap. Short of that, I find the search box as tedious as the Trade Filter, but with it you can search for more than one item at a time, which I find more practical. So, unless Egosoft does the obviously needed change, there is no solution to that problem.
I agree. That players should be able to type and as they type the product starts to automatically populate and narrow down the exact product. Having to type the entire thing is a bit annoying. partial typing should be able to be done. But for that to get implemented, hell will freeze over first.
I don't understand. What do you mean by "Base price" (min, average or max?) and what is "the different list right" ("the different list, right"?).
The (price) after the name is the average price. The price displayed in various stations fluctuates around that price by 15% or more depending on your reputation with factions. I am pretty sure this is correct.
"The strange thing is that an average prices column is indeed present in three screens (Player's Inventory, Encyclopaedia and PHQ Safe Deposit Storage), it is just not the right ones."
The point of this mod is to display the average prices in the screens where they are absent to allow for a quick comparison with the proposed prices (Traders' Corners, Trade Filter and Stations transaction screen). The screens you are talking about are not used for trading.

It just seems odd. :)
