Summary0013676: Solar Map: Trade Routes can be spammed?
DescriptionIn my current game I was able to establish the same trade route again and again, every time reaping the benefits for a relatively marginal credit cost.
This might simply be an issue of tweaking costs, but establishing the same trade route twice for the same resource feels wrong to me

I think it's ok. I just imagine it as increasing the traffic on the route.

My problem is that I'm not sure the routes are persistent after you make them or they don't feel persistent particularly due to the fact you can 'repeat' them and there is no way to get an overview of them for them to feel of more substance and so you can see the benefits they have more easily. The break trade route just says break all trade with said planet so it doesn't fulfill this function either.

For 0.905:

* Fixed a bunch of bugs where trade routes used radically different logic for "is this proposed trade route valid to start?" and "is this existing trade trade route valid to continue?" which led to a lot of trade routes just brokered by the player to disappear on the next validity check (thus accomplishing nothing).

* Fixed a bug where it was possible to broker a new trade route exactly identical (in which planets were trading and which resources were being traded) to an existing one.

Thanks :)
