Trade Distance

[Vellos]

Trade on FEI doesn't seem to be working properly; rather than allowing me to link up buy and sell offers around the marketplace, it always pulls it out of my granary.

Can you describe the process you go through that gets this result?

Note:
- You must be a trader.
- Does this relate to distance?
- Do you not see the boxes to select offers to broker or does it not broker correctly after you choose the offers?

[Telrunya]

As a Trader, you should be able to see checkboxes next to offers that are not your own. You can use those checkboxes to trade as a Trader, not the trade buttons.

I opened up the marketplace.

I checked 300 bushels of sales of food and 300 bushels of purchases, which all evened out to a nice profit.

Two more questions (and apologies if they're stupid questions ;D ):

1) Is the "trade" button that you clicked the same one that a non-trader would have, or a separate one?
2) Have you successfully brokered before, and if so, how recently?
