So below is what I get when I try to run bob's ores with a clean install:
TroubleItems.txt
There are two ways I can make this work, I will show both below. The first is just copying the whole thing into the config directly above the last "end" and change the "mod_name_here" to the mod's name, then add values for the items (which is toward the end of the file):
config.lua - option 1
The other way is to get rid of a few lines:
config.lua - option 2
either one should work as long as every line has either a number or false at the end.

if they have a true at the end, that means that they wont show up in game. If you want them to show up, turn them to false. The only ones though that you should turn to false are the ones that say blacklist.

I really like this mod.
I have two suggestions- make use of the rockets for trading. Secondly, make the prices based on what other people are buying. For example, for every solar panel that "bob" buys, "Tim" gets more for selling them. Basically supply and demand. (A lot like how the game "blockheads" does its 'global market')

I really want to do something like this, but I haven't really thought of a good way of doing it while trying to make it fit with factorio. It is planned though and I will eventually do it. Also, what do you mean by make use of rockets for trading? I already have it to where you can buy and sell rocket launcher and ammo in-game.

1. There are two different ways that you could implement it from a gameplay perspective- prices fluctuate per world or per every player using your mod. For the first one, you could simply use a global variable for every item that is changed whenever a item is bought or sold. For the second idea(the more complex one) you would have to host a server with the global prices, that are accessed and changed by the factorio clients using your mod as items are bought.

2. As for your second point on what I mean by rockets, I mean to not simply have chests in which the items magically appear, but rather to use the rocket silos to to the trading. You could think of that as flying to the nearest space station and purchasing items, then landing back in the silo for unloading,re-fueling, and re-use. That may be quite hard to program though.

Ya I was thinking of making a server or something that would make it for everyone, but then what happens when someone decides to cheat in a bunch of items and sell it on the market? Nobody can make a profit on selling their items and I would have to reset the server. What I'm going to do is I will try making a server where everyone can contribute to a global market, but I don't even know if it is possible to connect to a server with a mod. I will look into it, but it might be a while before I actually implement something like that (or it could be soon, I don't have a plan for what I'm doing next after the next update of my mod). The second thing about rockets, I could make an entity that is larger instead of the chests, but I don't think I could have a rocket that flies up and down. Maybe I could have the chests have a fuel resource (like energy crystals for teleportation, or a rocket if I want it to be expensive to trade) but that makes it really expensive to trade stuff and I don't know if I want that.

A potential problem with "global market" would be players using cheats to flood the market with stuff.

if I disable galactic trade (version 0.6.0), mod delete, then charge again and activate, it no longer works. He works again when I start a new game and "Recalculate Market Values" does not work

unfortunately saves before 0.6 wont work. If you don't plan on using multiplayer then you don't need to update, but otherwise I would suggest making a new save.

Hmm... I thought it worked from my testing, but I guess it doesn't. I will look at the recalculate market values button, but I might have already fixed it for the next version. Thanks for the feedback.

Get the 0.5.3 version, I made it to where that wont happen anymore. Before I had it to where you had to do things to other mods to make it compatible, but if you get version 0.5.2 and up you don't need to.
You can get the older versions here. (download the 0.5.3 zip) or just start a new save with the 0.6 version.

I haven't had the chance to mess around with 0.12.5, I'll do that tonight and try to have a version out by tomorrow.

I just thought of a way to have global dynamic economy; Have soft limits on the prices so that if a hacker cheats in items, the item value goes down to next to free.
For example, take this diagram. 1 dash equals, say, 200 sales of an item.

(pre-set lower limit) (pre-set upper limit)
