Merchants leaving without trading, abandonning their items
« on: September 04, 2013, 10:17:10 am »

Hi all,

Once, when human merchants arrived, it triggered a Siege. I don't know if some humans were attacked (i assume so), they immediately stopped trading at the depot and left, leaving items behind.

Since then, each years they arrive, begin to unload and suddenly : "There are no merchants trading right now". I can see I obtain new items in my stocks, forbidden. After a while, I have the message : Merchants from Naspamong will be leaving soon. Then they leave.

It happened four times in a row now, and I have no troubles with other race merchants.

I'm okay with gaining free stuffs, but I would be able to sell all the junk I have ... and I don't know if humans are holding it against me. Don't really care, in fact, I really just need to get rid of the junk gainst metal bars and war animals.

Do you have more than one trade depot. I have had problems like this when I have more than one depot unforbid(ed).

No I don't. But I'll build a new one and destroy the current, just to see if it changes something.

The first time could have been because a trader was killed by the siege, then they all leave. They shouldn't leave stuff behind, usually, so it sounds like it triggered a bug
