Has anyone got data on the corelation between trade in value of a ship at the shipyard with the number of times the ship has ported? Does it just affect the trade in value of the holds, or the entire ship? |

The entire ship. The value of the figs goes down too. For example- if I were to buy a ship, load it with figs and sell it, I would get a higher fig value than if I had been porting all over and had the same amount of figs. |

I posted on this once before. Traitor, please add this to your formulas page as time allows. http://www.tw-attac.com/TWForum/topic.a ... C_ID=11971 But to sum that up with a set of formulas... If Ported = 0-30, sellback = .9 * Purchase If Ported = 31-830, sellback = (.9 - ((Ported - 30) * .001)) * Purchase If Ported > 830, sellback = .1 * Purchase Evidently, sellback is affected by the presence of a Fusion Drive, but I'm uncertain as to how, since I've never come across a ship with one. +EP+ |

EP, have I told you lately that you are the man? |

It's very close to your formulae, I only ran it once, so the deviations may be just the usual TW randomness. ported resale % 0 90.2 10 89.5 20 89.5 30 88.7 100 81.8 200 71.8 500 42.3 800 12.8 830 10.9 1200 10.9 edit: dunno why no tabs, they even show when I edit reply? |

Okay, based on some quick testing, the pricing breaks down as follows: Hull, Holds, Drive(normal), and Computer depreciate at .001% per Port_Count (between 30 and 830) as stated above. A Fusion Drive however, depreciates at .00025% per Port_Count (between 30 and 830). So to determine trade-in value for a ship w/ a Fusion Drive, you'll have to break down those 4 individual components (shown when examining and when selling in the ship yard), and calculate each accordingly. +EP+ |
