OK, I have what is probably a simple question but I can't figure it out. I have created a standard(non-gold) game. I am supposed to have INTERNAL alientraders as well as ferrengi. The problem is that I can't get the alientraders to do anything. They didn't even show up at first. I created 4 of them using the editor. Gave them ships, credits, and put them in different sectors. They have yet to move. Is there something I missed? Any help is appreciated.

They don't really do much, they're really weak in general and don't move a lot. If you age the game 30 days or so, they should spawn more and get more active.

Thanks. I know most people usually just use the Gold aliens but I wanted a "standard" game. I was hoping they would do more quicker than 30 days but I guess I will just let the game run for a while and see what happens.
