Trading issue

[Leedot]

The tutorial does explain this correctly, though I think the initial diagram is probably what's confusing the issue here. The rule is each player can only have one trade route between any two planets, so you can't have 50 harvesters going between the same two planets. You can however have multiple trade routes that connect to a single planet so long as they all originate from different planets.

Really? Maybe I'm just dumb, but this:

You can however have multiple trade routes that connect to a single planet so long as they all originate from different planets.

Sounds quite contrary to what the video says:

when trading with another player, you may only have one trade vessel assigned per planet. So if youre trading with player A, and player A has 5 planets, you can create five trade routes, one per planet.

If I understand you correctly, that number should be 5 routes times the number of planets you own.
