I do not think that there is any error here.

As I wrote to you, answering your mail, the number of 21 is a rounded number, it could be just a little less than 21, say 20.8

If so, it can only offer 20 because all offers and trades are in complete products.

If you find examples of more than 1 left unoffered, then it might be an error or the corporation has made a reservation.

Offering products is as old as the game.
I do not think there are simple error there. the procedure endured trillions of transactions.

Curtis, 1 unit showing as reserved is normal, as Andy explained. It appears Andy has manually reserved product and not offered it in a contract. Have you manually reserved product for your corporation? If so that will work for monthly contracts.

However, if you desire to make a direct immediate sell, you must release the hold and move the product to the offered column.

With that said, I concur with Drac: "DAAYYYUUMMMMM LMFAOOOOO"

The numbers are always rounded.
the production is never in whole numbers.

we show rounded numbers and you just do not know if it is 21, 21.4 or 20.7

If it offers 20, the number is then lower than 21.

I understand you are happy to find an error.
there are probably many errors and we fix some from time to time,
but this one is not one of them.

LMFAOO calm bro your right and wrong depending on who's reading. Anything off from the exact value is an issue could be from what data type its written in idk but everyone considers it a norm so i guess you can say its apart of the game. Thats not the biggest issue although just stay away from maintenance corps and space shuttles, take 2-3 months to sell or 30+ to buy because of the way things are coded.

The days we have received threats from players not happy about what we have to say are long over.

Threats on the forum and threats by email,
all about the offering of less than one ton of plutonium.

We have never claimed that there are no errors in any of our computations.
there are.

we always look into complaints.
most are explained.
some lead us to an error and we resolve it.

All of this can be done in a constructive mode.

This player here. resorted to unacceptable language and extreme threats
that were placed on the forum and by mail messages to the gamemaster.

The language used is one of the worst I have ever seen and is not fit to remain on the forum or anywhere else.

This is unacceptable.

I have placed an explanation in a new discussion of the way products are offered and why, in about 50% of all corporations, there is one product left unoffered.

The last upgrade resolved the rounding problem by changing the page, showing fractions.

It is now easy to see that the entire products are offered on the market and the fraction remains unoffered.

a very small chance remains.

0.994 will show as 0.99
0.996 will show as 1.00

before, 50% showed 1 while it was less.
now 0.5% will show 1 while it is less.
