Unable to accept production contracts for Cargo Shuttles on KB

Hi,

I encountered the following problem when trying to buy a Cargo Shuttle through a production contract:

- Type www.simcountry.com on web browser.
- Login with credentials.
- Click 'My Country'.
- Select leader country (Unionport).
- Click 'Space Program' on left menu.
- Click 'Purchase Cargo Shuttles'
- A red banner is displayed with the following message below:
"You can buy Cargo Shuttles on the portal.
Please close contracts, buy it directly or buy it on the portal."


After contacting an enterprise named Apo Inc. on the world of KB (Kebir Blue), the player agreed to sell a Cargo Shuttle on contract to the country, Unionport.

However, he was unable to complete the contract and replied with a message quoting what he saw:


From: Apo Inc
To: Unionport
Real Date: 23-11-2013 23:18:06
World Date: April 14 3469

Subject: Cargo Shuttles
Message: Sorry man, I just tried to create a contract and got a message saying "you can't sell cargo shuttles to other players". I didn't know that.


If it is possible to make contracts with players to buy Cargo Shuttles, that would be great.

Please reply back soon.

Thank you.

Sincerely,
Woodland

This is intended. You either have to buy shuttles with gold coins or build your own shuttle corp. If you wish to save the coins, you can get help buy buying all the components from players, engines/boosters etc., and building just the shuttle corp. You do need game level 5, however.

I was the intended seller. It seems Aries is right.

Hi,

I would like to agree with the two responses above.

However, the message gives the reader the idea that its possible to close a contract (create and agree to a production contract) with another player for a Cargo Shuttle.

It does not mention buying the components of the Cargo Shuttle to be able to make it.

It makes me believe that the system allows such a contract to be made to directly buy and sell a Cargo Shuttle.

If this is indeed not true, than perhaps it might be best to change the description (text) of the red banner.

It would help prevent confusion and give it a clearer logic for players to understand its meaning.

If it is possible to make contracts with players to buy Cargo Shuttles, that would be great.

Just my thoughts.

Sincerely,
Woodland
