Couple bugs

[althax]

I noticed a couple problems.

1. My pirate is not getting a notification when i stop & loot/destroy smugglers during trade wars. This is contrary to the trade war description on the conflict page. I'm unsure if the actual rep bonus activates or not.

2. I followed a rumor for starship developments and upgrades. When I arrived at the independent planet the star dock description said there was -1 upgrades available and all the upgrades were grayed out. The rumor was still active on the planet description page and I tried leaving the planet and returning but it didn't change.

Thanks for the great game, just trying to help out how I can.

1 - I have added this to the list. There are skill / rep checks for the award but not a notification. That is an oversight on our part and I'll fix it up.

2 - That is mathematically possible but not a good experience. I will investigate. Do you happen to remember which planet or game edition you found this on? It is more likely on ST RPG's smaller rating indy worlds. The fix might be as simple as some minimum upgrade counts for the rumor.

I've encountered space docks where the rumor is in effect but there are no upgrades available.

I've found that making a metal and crystal run to a nearby world, and then delivering it to the world in question, usually solves the issue for me.

(I figure it's not a bug, just a poor econ world that needs some metal/crystal to re-open the space dock to us. I also figure there probably ARE upgrades available, but the Prince is just holding them back for his own naval vessels)

I was just returning to post that the most common cause of this limit is probably the available resources on the planet. I will do a fix to replace the -1 with (maybe a tip about resources?) a 0, tho, because -1 looks like a bug for sure.

As far as the planet name, I'm pretty sure it was steelcrank. I was way out in deep space chasing a rumor about merchants victimizing people. Im running v3.9.5 and this was on crazy difficulty.

Next time I'll loot crystals and metals to dump into the economy.

Ok I saw this too and posted elsewhere but I understand now.
