sometimes you can trade an infinit amount of an item, for example screws
after you buy all of one itme the trader has, just reopen the trading-menu and he has the full amount of it again

Its not a "bug" or an exploit. Every time you open the trader window it will refresh the existing items (but not add new ones)

I think he talking about adding just sold items. I have had that bug too.

i dont think that's a bug. What about the other players that want screws, they should be given the same opportunity to get them. Could the list be only for you? idk, that may not be possible.

no, every player has his "own" trader-gear, so that's not the point.
but with this problem i explained, you are able to buy an infinity amount of an item
i think that makes the game too easy

Its only 'infinite' for that restart. im sure that no one has enough gear to trade for items for 4 hours.
The question is this 'feature/bug' intentional or not?
I think its intentional

Guys, its not a bug. If it was the amount of items in a trader would have to be higher, since it would be limited.

But like Falcon said, no one has enough gear to trade for 4h. I go, you trade what you have and you leave, only to come back when its needed.

Sometimes the trader offers 1 screw.
That implies that you should only be able to buy one screw in this period between the restarts.
So its a bug, if you can bypass this.
Otherwise there would be no limitation of offered items, you could buy an infinit amount of each item the trader offers, right?

And your argument, no one would have enough gear:

For Example, the electrical circuit is very rare, the trader offers it unusually.
And if it is offered, he has only one or two.
I think, the intention of the devs was to make it very hard to trade it.
But know you can wait until its offered and buy 12 electrical circiuts, and that is not hard, you can get enough(maybe 20) 249-mags from missions or looting to effort it.
