I have 17 state corporations in my country but 15 of them are having shortages of supplies. Their production is now at 0% and they are still paying the cost every month (fixed property, salaries, etc). I've tried updating the trade strategies for all corporations on the My Corporations page and I've tried looking into my Automatic System's page. I'm not sure how to make my corporations order products for themselves again. What is the best course of action?

Wow, it's an epidemic. Your corporations are doing the same thing Berand's were doing on LU. I noticed that you said you looked at the automatic systems page... are the checkboxes for all of your corporations checked under the "product purchasing" and "product sales" columns?

If they are already checked, have you tried unchecking them, saving parameters, then checking them and saving again?

I've found out the problem. Yes, it had to do with those checked boxes (the whole grid of boxes next to each corporation's name). I didn't think they would be unchecked. I'm not sure if its a bug or if its somehow meant to be that way. The good news is that I've fixed it and now all my corporations are ordering. They're beginning to turn a profit.

Thank you for the reply Luonnotar.
