Buying goods in a station/starport

[Inscrutable]

Hi, this is probably a very stupid question, but is there a way of buying larger volumes of goods than just 1 ton per mouse-click? I've only got a small ship at the moment, but already the requirement to click thirty times just to fill my small cargo-hold is getting frustrating - the thought of filling up a large freighter with several thousand tons of storage is a little scary, and may kill my mouse! Just to clarify, holding the mouse button doesn't seem to work for me as the product is only transferred when the mouse button is released, and only a single ton is bought at that point, no matter how long I have held the button down for. I'm assuming that I'm doing something wrong and would really appreciate a little guidance! Thanks in advance.

There's no way as far as I know. I was thinking about it too, when I was testing my ship that has 2000t capacity. I think I'll bring this up for Robn, thanks for reminding me.

It would be nice if you could put 10 tons of cargo at a time by control clicking like in ev nova. Also with the new station screens is it possible to use the money cheats?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk[/url]

I like the way Starsector handle's this. Shif+mouse brings up a bar to set the amount.No, ctrl+m is gone. You can useimport("Game").player:SetMoney(amount) on the console instead.

The money cheat is gone?! Well.. back to gunrunning for the Martian Resistance...

Thanks for the confirmation on the buying question, and thanks also for preempting my next question which was going to be about the money cheat. How very efficient!

The new interface is.. new, so not got everything like auto-repeat and stuff in it but those are all good suggestions! Using Ctrl/Shift to add 10's or 100's of an item might be a fairly quick fix.

Is there a similar console command to equip your ship like 'import("Game").player:SetShipEquipment(fuel_scoop)' or some such? I'm looking for a way to continue my game when a new build breaks saved games. Actually, can someone point me to a listing of the lua console commands in general?

[DARI]

you can use some tools like "Speed Auto Clicker" or "Autohotkey" to have fast mouseclicks either with holding a customized key or on/off switch

@Marcel: There is.import("Game").player:AddEquip:('NAME')orimport("Game").player:AddEquip:('CARGO', amount)There's a list for the constants to use. The MainMenu.lua could give you hints for some other adjustments like Ship ID Where there's a Game.something, you need import("Game").something in the console to be able to use it.

Excellent! Thank you very much! :biggrin:

another question slightly related to trading: is there a way to make currency readout more readable ?ie. instead of 3500000.00 credits it got some thousands limiters and reads 3,500,000.00 or in other locales 3.500.000,00also would like to see an option to hide the dezimal values.

import("Game").player:AddEquip:('HYDROGEN', 10) does not work in new Pioneer Space Sim version. How can i refuel my Ship in lua console?

[nozmajner]

The Wiki page for that is a bit outdated it seem.This might be helpful: http://pioneerwiki.com/wiki/Lua-based_equipment#Accessing_the_equipment[/url] Or you can use: import("Game").player:SetFuelPercent(100)

[fluffyfreak]

I guess this should work then? Game = import("Game")Equipment = import("Equipment")Game.player:AddEquip(Equipment.cargo.hydrogen, 10)
