ladder servers - How Purchase?

[xefil]

Hello!

I've a dedicated server with an amount of 11.000 planets. Yep, it's new
How can I purchase the first step of "Official Ladder Server" - "Amateurs place"?
To try I do the following from my "Player page":

- Applied the ladder limits and restarted the server
- Logon to player page
- Selected "Ladder Servers" Menu
- Insert as login my server login (not my player login!)
- Selected "Amateurs place"
- Insert my "Validation Code" obtained when I've purchased the game

--> SAVE

I receive the following error: "You do not have enough Planets to perform this action."

BTW the server should have more or less 11.000 planets and this costs 10000P.
My account doesn't have all these credis. Are the planets not taken from the server balance?
Or should I "move" the planets from the server to my account? In this case, how perform this action?

Thank's a lot!

You need to transfer your planets to your player account.

I'll take a look how to do it.

Thank's!

On a sidenote... you can also set your preferred donate plugin to send directly to your player account, though be wary that your login shows in the bill, and has a small possibility of scaring away potential donors..

I haven't checked in TM2 yet, but in TMF you also got taxed to send coppers from a server acc to a player acc, which can be avoided via the above method; albeit, your server account still has to start out with at least a dozen or so coppers to be able to accept donations and send bills anyways.

TY for the answer and suggestions. Meanwhile I've upgraded the server from 0-40000LP to 40-80000LP. The upgrade was completetd succesfully deleting the previous LP server and purchasing the new one. The planets are paid back deleting the old LP server, also all works perfectly.
Yes, there are some planets taxes applied on any transiction, but really only some planets... (for what.. who knows?!)

Cheers,

After, what.. 3-4 years..? The question still arises.. why do we need to transfer coppers/planets from a server acc to a player acc (and suffer the nadeo tax along the way)?!

Common sense would dictate the coppers from a server account would be pooled into the player account.. doesn't seem that complicated from a programming perspective.
