Hi, I can't keep my corporations supplied...and someone requested to open a corp like 1 year ago and it is still not built. Am I missing something?

Check a few things:

On your Corporations page, adjust your Trade Strategies. (If you buy above market by 10% plus 5% each month not delivered, you should get them in time.) Also check your Supply Quality, set it to 120-130.

(FYI: the wording for the Buy strategy is counter-intuitive. It asks you how much "below" market you want to purchase your supplies. To tell it you want to buy at 10% "above" market you have to type in -10.)

For the slow corp build. You can buy a Production Plant for your country which will speed up construction of future corps.

Yes,I've pretty much done those things...there appears to be a bug...so, what I've done this time is cancelled all the orders, set the paramters to 110 and 5 as you suggest, and supplies to 130. Hopefully that will fix it.

Btw, this is a new problem since that new 14 day thing the gamemaster introduced on new players. Before then, no problems.

Ah... well, updates are unpredictable at best. You're on the right track though. Check on top of your Trade Strategies (they are reset often! It's ridiculous.)

Haven't been reset since I left the 14 days of hello...but, still the supplies are not arriving...could it be that I'm somehow locked on "best price" and that my setting aren't working? So, the price I'm offering is always locked at 100%?
