 Well, that's good to hear, wished things would be that easy in Holland, it works for the phone, but move completely with your Internet structure, no way.

				| Which *SPAM LISTE* are you talking about? 
 In the spreadsheet there are some hiden data, the fuel prices included, but they are copied from the game files.
 
 The fuel prices is are fluctuating around an average, but can't really say if inflasion is in the game.

				| Hi Bregalad, 
 No, it's not one off yours, i thought. but i could be wrong that it was made by Ruben
   
 Coz when i compare the fuell prices with the list and in the game, the fuell in the game year 2018 are much cheaper.
 
 Therefore was my question, do the prices in the game fluctuate, or is there an average "up and down" percentage build in the game
   
 Greetz,
 
 Gerard
 
 PS: Same goes for the "fixing your ship" to 100%

				| The price on Rubens list is a bit high 
 I just looked at the two first port, and the xml file says that Aalborg should be 141 and Århus 142, the pricelist you refer to says 190 and 192.
 
 Try going to Aalborg or Århus to see wich is more correct,you migth not get the $141/142 price, but it should be close by.

				| Hi Bregalad, 
 And in what year did you compared these prices
   
 As i told, in the year 2018, the prices don't match at all, in most off the harbours the prices are way to high.
 
 Greetz,
 
 Gerard
 
 PS:I'll check the other harbours tonight in starting a new game.

				| Earlier  you wrote that the prices in the game is cheaper then on your list. Correct? 
 I did not check a specific year but the xml file(game data).
 
 Try to go to Aalborg or Århus so see the prices in 2018 and tell me if they are near the prices of 141 in Aalborg and 142 in Århus.
 
 The xml file(game data) says that the fuel price in Aalborg should be near 141, if this is the case the price dont change over time.
 
 Now, go play!

				| The file with the fuel prices is not mine but I was the one who put them on the internet for the first time. The orginal is for so far I know from Jakob Dölling. 
 The original file can be found on my website :
 
 http://home.tiscali.nl/southamericaliner/port.html
 
 The new harbours are not in it.
 I My case the fuel prices either did not meet the prices in the file but they were near.
 
 I think that in every calculation for POC you need to take the a 10% from the outcome of the calcalation becaurce foulds in POC or in the calculatian due to circumstances beyond our control.

				| For those who wants to know why 10% it's just a number you can take a other one if you like. |  |
