gandalfbmg: When I build the custom house and set it up to trade goods, they never sell... I make sure they're 'green' in my colony window, but next turn they're still piling up and my acount doesn't go up at all... Is there a glitch around this in this version?
I could be wrong here, as it has been a while since I have played, and I usually just let my CH do its own thing. However, I think that while you can build a CH in every city, only one will sell goods each turn. It sells a maximum of 3 types, and always sells the largest quantities first.
If that is the case, then it may simply be the other cities are outperforming that particular city, thus causing it to never sell goods, or at the very least to n not sell very often.
