Errr, haven't posted here in a while, apologies.
The heart of all the trade issues is the pricing algorithm, I've found what I think the bug is, and it should be fixed very soon.
Scripts -- Yeah, I don't know.. The nature of my game is that it's scriptable, and I can either get super angry at people who write scripts, and make their lives miserable, or I can go with it and see what happens. Several people like that aspect, and I flipped the coin, and decided "scripts ok!". Zootcat isn't a programmer, and as far as I know he's not using scripts, and he's towards the top of most of the scoreboards.
I apologize for experimenting with the game all the time, I'm just trying to find the mix of stuff. If your empire is too ungainly, and you want to start over, I'm more than happy to restart anyone who wants it -- there are still plenty of stars left in the galaxy, even with Heirulf and Ik spamming arcs all over the place.
And I'm working on making it better!
Heh, once you get the system up and running for things like Morale, those of us that have gone crazy with planets will pay the price, so long as scripts don't automate that as well. Would it be possible to have a system to abandon or destroy planets? I'm getting to the stage were I simply don't want to fight any more cause I have more planets then I could possible ever want. Yet there are players I want to do significant damage too, and pirate fleets just don't cut it.
