${Me.Trader} now always returning false

Since the last patch macroquest is no longer returning true for ${Me.Trader} even if in trader mode. Just FYI.

Nope, not on others either. SOE messed with trader mode since last patch it seems, if you camp or crash in trader mode, you automatically start back up in trader mode when you log in. Might have something to do with it /shrug.

I'll look into this. I'm surprised it doesn't work though since I did test "/who trader" in bazaar and it seemed to work just fine.

Then again, I was getting a different offset originally as well than what others was getting, so perhaps there is some weirdness going on here.

I noticed that my trader logs back in with the trader window up, *but* the "Begin trader mode" button is grayed out. I have to shut the window and reopen it for it to un-gray.

Sounds like client-side bugs to me :/

I think you have lag issues, reboot your ISP.

Yes, that was a lame attempt at humor, but it's funny to me so there!
