Negotiation Helper should be optional

Shah

Hi. FoE-Helper is really great tool! Just Amazing!!!
But, I don’t understand why the negotiation helper is forced on us! I am tired of clicking the X every single time I negotiate! I don’t need it at all and most of the time I find the correct solution whereas the negotiaton helper is wrong!
But my point is it should have the option to use it and not be forced to open whenever we attempt to negotiate.

*By the way, I have no idea what tag I am choosing for this topic since they are not translated into English. Just picking a random one so the system allows me to send in my discussion/request.

1) If you dont want to use the negotiation helper you can turn it off in the settings menu.

2.) The simulation helper always chooses a combination with the highest chance of solving. It is not possible to have a higher chance manually. In theory you could be a bit more efficient on goods manually depending on your preferences which goods you want to save more, but in most cases the helper still beats manual players regarding goods efficiency.

Wow! I can’t believe I missed that setting. Thank you!
I have no problem with the combination it uses. I just don’t like it popping up because I like to solve the negotiation puzzle myself 🙂
Thanks for the help!

I am unable to use this feature in GbG negotiations. Do I have to do something special?

Negotiation helper was removed from GBG because of a request of Inno:

Will the icon be removed? Perhaps that is/was a reason I was banned??

andrgin

The icon in the menu stays because negotiation helper will still work for guild expedition, outposts, daily quests or the mars/asteroid map.

At the moment we dont k ow if using the helper triggers the ban or only powertools. This could be trying powertools out once 3 months ago.

So far Inno did not tell us that we did anything wrong, so I expect it to be either a bug in their detection system or powertools some while ago.
