ROADMAP FOR GALACTIC TRADING

Version 0.9 for Kerbal Space Program 1.12.5

Released on 2024-04-09

Version 0.91 Beta for Kerbal Space Program 1.12.5

Released on 2024-04-10

Uploaded the correct file - the previous upload was an earlier WIP file, not the correct beta release

Version 0.9101 Beta for Kerbal Space Program 1.12.5

Released on 2024-04-10

I created this mod for my enjoyment and enjoyed it so much that I thought I'd share.I apologize I got a little disorganized and had too many copies of this mod on my PC- The previous 0.91 was the correct file but had a ore price patch that I removed because it bugged the resource prices, this file ladies and gents is right out of my KSP game files and is good to go!

Milestone 1

I will start to balance prices and goods availability and add localization files to allow easier translations and a cleaner file system using AI when Milestone 1 hits 1000 downloads and at least 10 feedback replies then release

Version 0.95 Beta - To be started after Milestone 1 is hit

Goods prices and availability are optimized with AI.

Milestone 2

I will start to add 10 additional outposts all over the Solar system, Add every caliber of BD armory rounds and at least 10 missiles as tradable goods then rebalance with AI when Milestone 2 is hit 4500 downloads and at least 40 replies on the forum when complete this will be no longer Beta.

Version 1.0 - To be started after Milestone 2 is hit

First non-beta release featuring 36 Trading outposts, and 17 tradable resources and tradable weapons.

Milestone 3

If this mod gets to 20,000 downloads and at least 80 replies to the forum release post I will hold a poll on the forum on which planet pack to add 36 Trading outposts throughout said planet pack and rebalance with AI. This will be released version 1.5.

Version 1.5 - To be started after Milestone 3 is hit

72 Trading outposts spanning numerous solar systems with 17 tradable resources and tradable BD armory weapons.

Future beyond this? Any suggestions?

The reason for these milestones is I created this mod for myself and thought I'd share and am happy with it the way it is. I don't want to do everything stated above if no one is playing the mod but myself.

Interesting!

I'll give it a try later this week!

My coding computer died and my back up computer can not handle mod development. So development of this mod has been suspended until I can get a better computer - sorry

Bael Levinas · May 3

Hello, excuse my bad English. Today I downloaded the mod with its corresponding dependencies, but I am not understanding how the trade is done. To begin with, I can't load the resources into the corresponding tanks.
And I don't see any missions (as I saw, I guess that in the mod there are no missions but just in case I clarify it) or the 26 trading posts in kerbin or other planets. I only see a building next to the runway which I can't interact with other than being able to see the resources. If I assume correctly, there should be other posts where I have to take these resources to other places, but I do not understand how to load them or if it is due to a bug in the mod or if another mod is generating the error. For more info, I am uploading some screenshots for more info. And the mods I use.
First of all, thank you very much for your contribution to the community with another interesting mod.

Sorry you're having trouble.The building at your base is a "buy only" building, meaning you can only sell goods to it. Missions have not yet been implemented. As for other locations in the "read me" folder of the mod you will find a waypoint manager cfg file . Import that into the waypoint manager and you'll have the 17 custom waypoints then turn on the stock landing sites for every trading post. Please note there are numerous stock easter egg sites I used as well . Not all posts sell or buy all goods. For your convenience here is the waypoint manager cfg

The mod uses KK and WP Manager scripts found in the download. Should be ez to mod the mod =)

Interesting idea, and an interesting roadmap too. Out of curiosity, are the BD additions just, like, delivering ammo to the military (or less savoury types) like any other commodity, or are there any plans to need the weapons yourself?

When I get a new pc and start modding again it will be a commodity, but nothing stopping anyone from having active weapons and using outposts to re-arm their ships. I would love to host a multiplayer server using this mod and Scifi Shipyards Redux, once both have bd armory intergration for some pvp fun.

I'm having trouble to boot up my game with this mod installed.
The game freezes up at the and off loading up.
Right before getting to the main menu ksp stops reacting.
I have no clue what would be causing this.
I suspect a mod incompatibility.
I checked both the log and module manager log without result.
I would really like to use you're mod.
Love the idea of being able to sell you're hard earned good from around the star system for cash.

I don't see any conflicts. Try removing KerbinSide Remastered & KerbinSideRemastered GapExtras as I suspect they may conflict as they change Kerbin drastically and may be causing a conflict with Galactic Trading. If that doesn't work try removing Galactic Trading to see if that is the issue,

That did it
After removing all the Kerbinside mods the game loads just fine.
Many Thanks.

The only issue I have noticed was the prices for several of the tanks being negative when empty. I have enjoyed the mod otherwise, and discovered a couple of good trade routes. I fixed up the prices for my own use, if you would like to see what I did, just let me know.

Ty for posting this bug. When/if I start modding again I will have to look into this. If anyone wants to take over the development of this mod I'd be ok with it.

Derpistheword · November 9

Someone should absolutely keep developing this, this is what people have been wanting to see for a while now in KSP.
