Re: Trade Depots and Trade Port not working

Thanks for your report, we are investigating the trade vehicles stopping.

In your trade depot do you have it set to Export the stock?

    If either of you get a chance could you do a quick video and link to it?

    You can press V in game to record or use Fraps etc, whatever works best for you.

    I had the SAME issue last night. 2 smelting factories, with two full trade depots, and an ore min across the street, and they were constantly out of ore.

    One step closer to just giving up... 

    Import, export, use locally, it didn't matter. Tons and tons of ore on the same street - and none was making ot to the smelters.

    Hi Bazajaytee,

    I have some trade depot that are exporting and that works fine. External truck come and pickup stuff.

    What doesn't work is the local trucks.

    They simply doesn't move all my goods around. So my coal power plant stops

    My processor plant doesn't get plastic, though I have about 16000 crates in my city

    I just created a new subdomain for this, so it could take some time for it to work.

    But I have just uploaded a movie.

    I hope this helps!

    I got the same problem, all of my trade depot trucks just disappeared, I have checked everywhere if they are stuck in traffic maybe in other cities too but they are just gone. They were there when I played earlier today but when I came back they were all gone.

    I am currently building an arcology, I have searched the internet and read others had the same problem and it was always while building a great work so that probably has something to do with it.

    I clicked on 'Me too' when this thread was first started and also subscribed to it to follow updates. However, at this point, I feel I should state that the problem in the quoted post is not the same as mine. Probably the same bug, but not the same scenario creating it. 

     

    I have not started, or finished for that matter, a great works project in the city's region where I encounter the trade buildings and delivery trucks not working.

     

    To surmise, this bug is not exclusive to the condition that a great work has to be started, or present in the region for this bug to rear its game-breaking head.

     

    The screenshots and video posted earlier in this thread are accurate of the bug I have experienced.

    So we have to wait on some from of update !!!! 

  • It would be stupid of us to expect an update on the bug through the forums, or more specifically, this thread. I suspect the only way we will know is if it appears in a patch they release for the game.

    We have had 4.0 today, but there is no mention of this bug in the patch notes. Can anyone confirm if it has been addressed/fixed in patch 4.0 today?

    I cannot check myself as my server Europe West 1 is still down for maintenance! And to be quite honest, I'm not sure I will play again anyway until this bug is fixed.

    Just played update 4.0 for the first time since it's release.  And in line with the release notes, this issue has not been addressed.  After about 30-40 minutes of game play, all trade port trucks stopped delivering (in my case) stored imported goods to local factories (coal->smelters & plastic -> processor plants).  Other resources (raw ore, alloy) are being delivered directly from local generating sources (ore mine, smelters).  Bulldozing truck garages and rebuilding them remains a successful workaround.

    Same issue right here

    I actually just spent about 6 hrs fixing my traffic to perfection and then this problem started. Maybe i fixed traffic so much i broke the game?

    This is unbelievable that they havent fixed this **bleep** yet. What a lazy company

    Imports seem to be making it to the trade depots and ports, however the goods are not making it beyond that point. I can not see any trucks moving around to any of the factories, nor are any of the goods being delivered to the factories. All factories are flashing "Out Of Resourse" I have tried everything.
