i hit a 5
lol, this is a first time for me and it happened by accident. I came off a planet and thought i would top up the fuel in my ship. Little did i realize... all i had in my pocket was 14 creds....I rapidly docked to pick up the fuel and fluked the perfect trade. lol... don't ask me to do it again, as i have no idea how i accomplished the trade, it looks strange to me.... lmao, way cool.
Here it is:
Venom docked 10 hours and 40 minutes ago.
Items Status Trading % of max OnBoard ----- ------ ------- -------- ------- Fuel Ore Selling 32760 100% 222 Organics Selling 6000 100% 0 Equipment Selling 5670 100% 0
You have 14 credits and 33 empty cargo holds.
We are selling up to 32760. You have 222 in your holds. How many holds of Fuel Ore do you want to buy [1]? Agreed, 1 units.
We'll sell them for 4 credits. Your offer [4] ? I could have twice that much in the Androcan Empire, but they're yours. For your excellent trading you receive 5 experience point(s). You have been promoted to Warrant Officer!

You have haggled 5 points many times but never noticed because the script does it for you.

Re: i hit a 5
I wrote a script many years ago in a script challenge to get 5 exp every trade. To do this I used a pod on a maxed port , everytime the port got to 100% product I'de do a trade .. gain 5 exp then wait again till port was at 100% to do it again.
I takes all day to gain 32k exp so I decided there were better ways to gain exp. in an unlim game.
Remember this still takes turns to do in turn based games.

Re: i hit a 5
Most people use triple trading for that. Buydown an SSS port, 2 exp per trade, that's 6 exp total. Dump to a planet or jet, repeat.
If you do 10 units per at a time, and it's at 2000 each, that'd be 200 turns for 1200 exp. Not super useful, but it has its in some edits.
I suppose if you can nail the 5exp every time, you could get 3000 exp instead. That would be 16 and 40 bustup cycles each. The former isn't worth it unless planets very expensive, the latter... eh, actually could be worth doing sometimes.
