Help: Trade - General Options

Options for the Sales screen are further down (and the "Misc" tab has its own help text).

Customers tab: The two lists of customers are formatted in a way they can be copied and pasted directly into the TO: field at new in-game mails. You may want to split too lengthy lists into smaller batches not to choke the in-game mail system.

Filters: The bottom four text fields may be used to filter for text in the corresponding columns. It is possible to filter in more than one column at a time, then all text must match the input. Click the Filter button to perform the filtering, Clear will reset the table.

Any plain string will work as filter, which will work for most users. The filter is case sensitive. However, for hard-core users common regular expressions are supported. Be careful though, ill written expressions will block the expected entries from the list. Knowledge of regular expressions is not essential as plain text will do just fine. Only the text fields are filtered this way.

Prices are filtered differently and can be filtered on exact price, between, less than, and greater than. For the latter options, use the < (less than) or the > (greater than) signs.


< 1234 Any price less than and equal to 1234
> 5678 Any price equal to and greater than 5678
1234 − 5678 Any price between 1234 and 5678, including the limit values

Clicking a cell in the table will filter on the selected value. For example clicking on on a cell in the price column that shows 5000 credits will filter the entire table on that value, while clicking on a name will filter on that name.
