Hawken Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Please do this. If you do /startshipment you see way to many businesses needing components. I guarantee at least a few of these are out of cash. If we make it so these disappear it means businesses that aren't paying extra are more likely to get served. Link to comment

I disagree with this. You will end up with businesses ordering stupid amount of crates which they cannot afford and never getting out of negative. So many businesses cannot get deliveries at the moment and actually run a successful business on the server. If you can't afford to pay then you cannot get crates, simple. If they need to go into negative they should try and get a loan IC'ly instead of having the script save them. Link to comment
Hendrixx20 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 (edited) I disagree with this suggestion, if you can't afford crates then don't request them. I believe business should already have enough money in their balance before even thinking about requesting crates. It's not rocket science, you can easily calculate it before requesting.

Natala Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 (edited) Not sure why this is being debated, it is a bug. If you deliver a create to a place that can't afford it, they consume your crate, and your delivery isn't registered as complete. Meaning if you set off with a full van having done 4 deliveries that day, you leave with a empty van at 4 deliveries. If you have crates left over you can select a new delivery location, but if that new spot can't afford it, it consumes your last crate and you don't get the message saying. "You have completed x deliveries." Your entire drive gets voided. You have to drive back and start over. Disheartening. Edited January 8, 2022 by Natala Link to comment

Then when they open they'll never turn a profit and make money and be perpetually in negative money. Being in negative in your business bank will mean you won't get a benefit from the 1k bonus either. I don't think it was ever an issue before, it just made sense to not waste truckers time.

Paenymion Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Well, you could just make them pay in advance. If you wanna request 50 crates at $300 each, you pay 15k to the server which is then held to pay out to the truckers. Link to comment

EmilyGrace Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Please do this. It's annoying to see so many extrapays on top(pending for a while) not being able to afford crates, situated in counties and when you go there after hauling your ass and realize they don't even have money and the route is cancelled is just annoying. If a business cannot afford crates, remove them from list and cancel all their orders. Once they have money, they can order crates again. Link to comment
