Contracts to Slave Countries

It appears your Corporation Contract acceptance/rejection does not work at all when it comes to contracting with a country's slave countries.

The only thing you get is a forwarded message saying there is a contract but you cannot accept anything in the most obvious place....

Corporation - Contracts - Review or Cancel Contracts

Another area that needs to be fixed it appears. Now I have to figure out what funky way this is circumvented to get these contracts working.

So looking at my slave country's purchase history I see I have a contract waiting and I cannot accept it from any means it appears...

Also you can easily cancel the contract I guess by just deleting the forwarded emails or the computer does it automatically at random because my order was canceled by seller - which was a lie as they product is still sitting there waiting for acceptance of contract...so they canceled it and re-did it again...now it finally shows up as a contract waiting for acceptance, but I have no means to accept this contract...unless there is some time difference between making a contract and accepting it...which is dumb. Should be pretty much instantaneous - its a contract not an order, ie a phone call, an email, etc - instant communication as this is not some Medieval game where it takes months to reply to communications.

Can you get this fixed? It appears we are finding more and more ways that this program is not working as intended or your links are totally screwed up and pointing to things not even remotely the same.

You have some items referenced over and over in different places which is just wasteful but when you expect something in a place that "makes sense" it normally is not or linked wrong.

@Dyna I would agree the user interface needs a revamp. It is difficult to find out how to do everything you want, but at least it's not like dwarf fortress. You can figure it out after awhile without referencing outside sources. ^_^

Try exploring your country's Trade pages. There should be a link to accept/reject corporation and country contracts in that department. The mail system should be updated so one can accept or reject offers from the inbox!

Works perfectly, just tested.

Of course, if the offer was retracted, the offer cannot be found but the message is still in the mailbox.
Offers are deleted by us if they are 160 months old (unlikely this happened).

If the offer was made to the country it can be found, in the menu: Trade->Contracts->country contracts or on the "trade overview" page link: "country contracts"

If the offer was made to a corporations it can be found, in the menu: Trade->Contracts->accept or cancel corporation contracts or on the "My Corporations" page link: "accept or cancel corporation contracts"
or on the Corporation page link: "Supplies: review corporation contracts"
