Hello,

Common Market is just for Score points?

I have noticed price contracts within Common Market members are done between market price and ( market price + 20% top ). I'm not seeing an economy benefit from the selling side.

Regards,

Common and local market contracts provide a very useful benefit, but only in a specific circumstance. Defense Weapons Maintenance (DWM) was the most obvious example, but doesn't appear to be anymore. However, I'm going to use it anyway.

It used to be impossible to build a DWM corporation and reliably make money with it because the demand for supplies was so high that no corporations could reliably get any and they would all go bankrupt. To fix the supply problem, you would build the corporations that produced the supplies for your DWM corporations. Then you use the local or common market to automatically create supply contracts to feed resources into your DWM corporations.

Other than that, though, there isn't really an economy need for it. You just do it because you can and it's a social thing, sort of.
