Comment and bug in new mail-accepted Trade Office

[RousayBob]

I find the new trading system in Testing a backwards step as all goods are only added to the store after reading a mail produced by the system. So, any night-time trades needed to keep lines going will not be added until the user accepts the trades in the morning. This could lead to those lines drying up. It just seems an unnecessary step to me. Furthermore, it appears that there is a bug as cancelled trades only add one lot's worth of goods to the store, not the entire amount.

definitely a step back...unless BB doesnt want us to sleep..

I completely agree about the strangeness and inconvenience of the Mail and while I've personally not seen a collection of requests (this doesn't mean they don't exist) this is the latest BB comment from a thread on the Test:


As far as I know, this feature was requested by a lot of people from the community. So we have built it in, to put it simply.

If you want to report Test server bugs it's best to do so over there, they won't be seen here:

Cheers Iolanthe. I see from your link that this has already been reported.
