How to make an auto trade route work in 1701 A.D.

[harbeh]

i was one of those ppl that made the common mistake HAHA

[89Killswitch]

Its WAREHOUSE

[Tron9222]

my ship is taking the good but not offloading it, im playing 1404 btw

[insgr]

hehe thanks... i obviously set the same amount to stay in the ship as i thought that amound will be uploaded at the destination.

thnx man, finally got it.

[bennyboy91700]

does anyone know why on only a few of my trading routes the ship goes off to pick the goods from a warehouse and comes back to the main warehouse and just stays there without unloading anything. you have to manually unassign and reassign for it to start moving to the first warehouse again. its really annoying!!

Dude i love you so much:D Thanks for the tips

[ash36230]

...I see.... how embarrassing -_-

thanks for the tutorial

[GoinCreekin]

For anyone who still cares, I figured out that if you leave the amount left in the ship at 1, it works fine. For example, if you want 20 tons of tobacco to be delivered, load 21 and leave 1 in the ship. I haven't had a problem since.

The mistake many do while setting routs is that they are thinking that the red arrow means how much of the goods should be taken out of the ship - less then how much is supposed to stay inside.

Great Tutorial!! - maybe some higher quality would be nicer/ better to read. (:

Omg.. brilliant ! :D I set up 10 bricks loaded and 10 unload, there must be zero. Looking forward to kick their asses since now in continous game :))) Thanx a lot

[p1nkAcid]

You have my thanks. Its nice to see someone caring for the wider community rather than just themselves :)

[caboose176545]

ohhhh, on zero, dang i had it load 20 tobacco at one island, then unload 20 at my home island, unload has to be zero?

[eftkasawy]

Ahh, man thank you so much, it was really frustrating for me to keep trying to fix my trade routes. But now I understand. Thanks a lot

[dwootton]

Hell yes, thank you. I got it to work.

I don't know what to say to you Ralthorien. I made the video to help you so i guess i will get to the bottom of your problem. Make sure that there is cargo in the ship to be dropped off, the red arrow is set to 0 and there is room in the wear house to put the goods in. Also, make sure your telling the trade route to put the correct goods into the warehouse!

[Ralthorien]

I've tried setting the red to 40, 0, andin between. they STILL wont drop the cargo in my main warehouse, and YES i have lots of space.
