Trade routes

[Tsagoth]

I've tried establishing a trade route with a nearby player. I set it up just as I would a harvesting route between two of my planets. However, the harvester does not run back and forth between the worlds. It makes one run and then stops. What am I doing wrong?

Making one run and then stopping usually means that when it got to the trader's planet it was refused permission to load, ie there was no route. Now why it thought there was no route I couldn't say without a lot more information.

Ok, yeah a little more info is definitely needed in the video tutorials. I THINK I set up a trade route, but not sure. I set up a Resource Gathering Auto pilot with my trade partner and used my colony as the source and his as the destination... Is that right? Or did I just waste an hour of my time waiting for my harvester to return?

Also, Marked, the "Trade approved" thing you were talking about I think was mentioned in the tutorial. But there it mentioned that the default was everyone was set to Embargo status. However, in the Ikala server, everyone is defaulted with a Peace setting. So I don't believe there is an actual "Acept Trade Agreement" function. I could be wrong.

Please give us some clarification Tsagoth.
