Problem with Traders

[thedc]

Traders seem to only accept their core items.  So agricultural will only trade potato and berries but nothing else.  What am I doing wrong?

Please explain further more.

Since Alpha 3, traders only accept their core items:

Industrial only accepts Metal,
Farming accepts only Potato's and berries,
Slavers only slaves
Weaponstraders only weapons.

All the side goodies, like agave, missiles, medicine, shells, uranium, stone, etcetera are no longer trade-able.

I am not sure if it is a problem, but it is a difference from Alpha 2, maybe because it was exploitable for near unlimited silver (if done correctly).

The Big Bang mod seems to remedy this somewhat. For instance, it allows you to package your produce and sell it to multiple types of merchants.
