I'm sure there'll be a line drawn against bots eventually, most games don't allow them for various reasons i won't bother going into.

[LoSboccacc]

is the bot configurable?

we have some money so we can keep longer stockpiles, like a half day worth, with the bot running just every quarter day?

(I say this just because of what scott said about message spamming)

addendum: it restock a specific store only, or you can give him specific quantities of stuff as well?

I got fired?

not that I know, but you're the second one reporting this.

has the seven day contract period expired? I was expecting some kind of notification or something

Ah, that may be it... That's not good, if it just expires without opportunity to expand AND a cost to rehire...

Edit: I was gonna say, I thought I was doing an alright job! Heh

[Muz]

Yeah, looks like I got fired too. I expected some kind of contract renewal thing. Reapplied.

[LoSboccacc]

all, please wait. I'll be renewing job openings with a 5% daily bonus

ok, I posted what I could.

more job will follow; there is now a hefty price to pay for each opening and we don't have the cash at the ready

The hell? So the game automatically fires everyone after a few days and then charges you 1.4M to 'renew' the contract? Damn Econosian lawyers.

Hmm.. seeing how the current trend is to run over chickens with cars, maybe I should buy a SUV and run over a few lawyers.

Current logic is to query all stores in the firm and restock/reprice any products that are sold by the firm at retail. No specific quantities (since that changes based on market demand) but you can specify how many hours worth of product to stock and it will adjust the quantity automatically based on how many you are actually selling.

Guys,

I've turned on retail automation running every 15 minutes so stock problems should be a thing of the past.

It will buy from import or B2B (whichever is a better deal based on Q-adjusted value ratios) and resets prices to Lazy2x price on every tick. Not sure if that's good or bad for the stuff we produce so feel free to suggest an alternate pricing strategy (maybe a minimum multiple of the Q-adjusted value?). It will try to keep 1 hour worth of product in stock for every product so for the vehicles that sell 1 every couple hours, it'll keep 4 around.

FYI, I've changed the automation sales pricing to set to the maximum of 2x cost or 4x Q-adjusted value so we're not just GIVING away the stuff we produce (or find great deals from B2B).

[BallC420]

Are we going to be selling anything besides cars with this company? If not, let's build out the rest of the retail spaces so we have more options when upgrading instead of taking our 250m^2 stores offline.

[LoSboccacc]

no, nothing else. suggestion accepted, the third store is building. so next upgrades should reduce our capacity of only the 33%
