Trader vanishes when choosing wrong faction?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

         Hi all,

I tried to send a trader to Blackbriar, but correctly got a message, that I can't go there because of low faction standing...

... and my trader vanished!

Now... is that a bug, or just bad luck and intended behaviour?

	A known bug i believe (known to players at least). i have heard other people say they had the same problem.

	It's normal behaviour, and a good way to get rid of excess traders, since you only really need 2. I made the mistake of building more; they cost a fortune and were basically useless. So it was nice to find a way to get rid of them and save the upkeep.

	If they only would send back the wine it took to build that wretch I take it as expensive knowledge, not to send traders to angry strange beings in far foreign hubs... but I usually use quite some traders, if only to be more flexible in transportation (stacking caravans is nice, and would be fun if available for cities, too )
