Advalary's Question About Tradeships

Repost

Quote:

"Anyways, my question was, back in the beta, trade ships would actually go to a trade port, pick up goods and bring them back, adding credits to your coffers only if they made it back.  I don't see that happening anymore, so what does destroying trade ships do now other than give your caps 5 exp and any bounty on them?"



I'm also really concered about this question, looking for an answer, tks.

They still do that. There won't be any money in the ship on the way out, but they should have some on their way home, which you can steal by destroying them. The change to showing it as a regular income rate in the income infocard was just for convenience.

So the shown income rate is the rate assuming Every trade ship returns safely?
