when the tradebots are working and correctly delivering and trading, it really brings an aspect of reality to the game. just to have ships moving through the universe really brings a lot to the game as a whole. this was made clear to me when they were just patrolling... the game just seemed dead. stagnant might be a better word. thanks to the devs for bringing them back to full capacity, it is appreciated.

There's an awful lot we're looking to do to make them more interesting, as well. Glad they're working properly again.

It'd be cooler if player actions affected things more. I mean, I can sit on the deneb-geira border and shoot 50 tradebots a day, but nothing happens. It's a start, though. :)

When you hail some of them they say they are taking supplies to a secret research database has anyone followed them to see if they lead anywhere..? Also some of them appear red on my radar and since I'm serco I assume they are itani but when I destroy them I don't get a change in my serco standing. Is this the way it's supposed to be? If so it's fine but just thought I would bring it to your attention.
