from what ive noticed in my city, is trading is BROKEN... ive had 5500/6000 barrels of oil sitting in my trade depot for 3 REAL TIME days now, and its still not getting sold on the "global market"... i have it set to sell, and it states that its selling @ 12,000 simoleans for 1,000 barrels... yet i have seen not a one move from my warehouse!!

ok so i bulldozed the Freight warehouse and put the game on cheeta-speed and its been 2 days ingame, and its still sitting @ 5500/6000 in the warehouse!!! is trading BROKE or do i need to have a city next to me in order for it to work? im confused!!

i dont have coal or ore mining... just 3 oil storage lots and the 1 freight that came with the trade depot when i ploped it down!! and its only taking freight from 2 industrial buildings that i have in my city!!

duno if this solution will work, i have an oil pump and my trade depot has 3 oil storage units on it and NONE of it is being traded... so i had to shut down the oil field!! been that way for 3 days now!

keep your city SMALL while growing the population, i feel like in the 2 citys that im currently playing i have to build too big to grow my population... say i build in grid form... and start with 4-6 grids of residential... is it possible to force them to build towers before i add more residential or is theyre no way to control the speed at which they grow into towers??

so i plopped down a large fire station and a police precinct last night, then i log in today and theyre both gone, and as SOON as i log in, meteor disaster and i got no fire department... so half my city burns down... WTF Maxis!!!

yep, switched it to export... and it says 12,000 per 1,000 units... but they all just sit in the trade depot!!

4 trucks, minimal congestion, and ive had 5,500/6,000 in the depot for about a week of game time now, i turned off my Oil Refinery cuz i had no place to put it!!

so i have my trade depot up, and its taking freight from my factory's and selling it... but its not selling my Oil...? i have 3 storage modules on the depot, and ive set it to export @ 12,000 per 1,000 but im not receiving any money for it yet, its just sitting their!! any ideas?

ok so ive just started playing in a region (formerly playing in my own region just messing around) and 3-4 of my industrial factory's are complaining "we need somewhere to ship our freight" how do i go about solving this problem?? if i put in a trade depot and a couple freight storing facility's will this remedy the issue??
