So if A offers to buy food at $100/ton, B would see it at $110/ton, but only receive $100/ton and cause A to hand over more money to their bank than they ever intended to spend? Simply because B chose to accept A's offer? By this logic A doesn't actually know how much they'd be spending to buy resources as it's dependent on who accepts their offer, and B is being advertised a lie, which would also look like a mistrade on the market. Edit: this would also allow B's alliance to temporarily set an export tariff of 100% on A, have B accept A's offer and extract even more money out of A. Essentially allowing one alliance to steal from other alliances.

@Village I feel like your explanations are be bit lacking as in how they'd work considering the market is not viewed as selling and buying, but an offerer and acceptor. As an offerer can be both a seller and a buyer, and likewise an acceptor can be both a buyer and seller. Your explanations would suggest that the listed price will always increase due to a tariff, but on the selling side of the market, it would make more sense for the price listed to decrease. Scenarios Under the assumption Alliance `A` had issued a 10% import and export tariff on Alliance `B` and no tariffs on Alliance `C`. `A` offers to sell food at $101/ton. `C` would see a `Buy` button for $101/ton, where for every ton of food bought by `C`, `A` would get $100. `B` would see a `Buy` button for $111.10/ton (due to the export tariff), where for every ton of food bought by `B`, `A` would get $101 and `A`'s Bank would get $10.10. `A` offers to buy food at $100/ton. `C` would see a `Sell` button for $100/ton, where for every ton of food sold by `C`, `C` would get $100. `B` would see a `Sell` button for $90/ton (due to the import tariff), where every ton of food sold by `B`, `B` would get $90, and `A`'s Bank would get $10. `B` offers to sell food at $101/ton. `A` would see a `Buy` button for $111.10/ton (due to the import tariff), where for every ton of food bought by `A`, `B` would get $101 and `A`'s Bank would get $10.10. `B` offers to buy food at $100/ton. `A` would see a `Sell` button for $90/ton (due to the export tariff), where every ton of food sold by `A`, `A` would get $90, and `A`'s Bank would get $10. Under these scenarios, the offerer would always be getting the amount of money they set, and the price on the label would either increase when the acceptor is buying, or decrease when the acceptor is selling. It should be noted that an export tariff from `A` to `B` of 100% would make `B`'s offer to buy food appear as $0/ton, while `A`'s offer to sell food appear as $202/ton. Even though the food is travelling in the same direction (from A to B), the cost changes simply because of who is accepting, even when it is listed at the same price.

Why is there no delete button?

If A has an import tariff on B and B has an export tariff on A, does that mean a member of A would be paying 20% in tariffs, 10% to each, to gain resources from a member of B?

I’m sure everyone here has traded on the market at least once, and if your experience was anything like mine then you found it annoying. Why annoying? Because: The table on mobile requires horizontal scrolling. When creating an offer, you have to remember what price and quantity you want to set and not get them mixed up. You need to double think if you want to click that sell or buy button. If the offer on the market is greater than you can accept and you want to buy as much as you can afford you either end up calculating how much you can buy/sell or enter small guess amounts until you run out of money. and plenty more. I’m sure most of you have even made a mis-trade, and while most of them only cost you a few thousand dollars, others have lost millions due to a simple mistake that never needed to exist. Now. Why am I telling you all this? Well, because I have a simple solution to all these problems and more that will make you’re trading easier, faster and most importantly safer. The solution is called DocScripts. Open source, available on all major platforms, and 100% free for everyone. Either search DocScripts up with your search engine of choice, should be the top or one of the top results, or click the link here. https://docscripts.stagintin.com/ Now what is DocScripts and how does it solve these problems and more? Well DocScripts, more specifically the View Trades and Create Trade script: Change the market UI so it collapses better when on small screens. Adds Outbid, and Match buttons on the existing offers so you can easily click on the price you want. Being one dollar better or the same price. And when using those buttons fills in the create offer form for you and hides the opposing sell/buy button so you can’t click on the wrong one. Changes the default amount sitting in the boxes of the current offers to accept and lowers it, if necessary, to what you can actually afford. So there is no need to calculate or guess what’s possible. Just click accept. These scripts also offer other features like allowing you to easily switch between markets and protect you from accidentally selling off your warchest. But I think the greatest selling point is that it gives you basic protection against creating mis-trades by simply changing how you approach creating offers through the Outbid and Match button. For those of you that don’t know what a mis-trade is. Simply put, it’s when you create an offer on the market that is of a worse price than the best opposing offer on the market. Because, remember, there are two sides to the market. When you create offers, they can be to sell or buy. And if you create an offer selling resources at worse prices than offers currently buying than you’re creating a mis-trade as you’d make more money by simply accepting their offer. An analogy: If I am buying apples at $10 each then you start selling apples at $7 each, you’d have created a mis-trade as some other third party can come, buy your apples and sell it instantly to me for a $3 profit each. You’d have been better off accepting my offer selling to me at $10 instead of creating an offer selling at $7. https://docscripts.stagintin.com/ DocScripts can protect you from making a million dollar mistake and all while making trading smoother, faster and easier. Give yourself real protection and have it cost you nothing.

TKR has our own baseball channel in our alliance, yet I still chose to create the Orbital Baseball League discord server and make the script public to the entire Orbis community. Because people in my alliance didn't want to play baseball with me :((( I have regularly over the months advertised the server in the game's discord server in the #pw-advertisements channel (as well trying to get it a few other servers as well) and pokecord, somebody who isn't even in TKR, chose to fork out the cash to make an in game ad about it. This is by no means a TKR thing.

You should join our small and fast growing community of baseball players. We’ve had a lot of new members join recently with at least one new member a day. Many of our new members are new people to the game. https://discord.gg/dfmnW2xt7B Also for anyone interested in auditing the script we use, it’s available publicly on GitHub. Just google DocScripts. As of this moment it’s the one with 15 stars (yes I’m bragging). I’ve also got other scripts there you might be interested in.

What you’re talking about already exists within the game. When you make a second offer on the market at the same price as one of your existing offers they get lumped together to make a new offer. The created date does get updated and they do get pushed to the back of the line. Personal trade offers don’t get lumped together.

I believe it’s about 20 mins of continuous activity. Deleting a trade offer is literally clicking a button. How much easier do you need it to be? You’re wrong. This would only reduce the number of unique open trades on the market. Any bots would just need to be updated to handle the change.
