I hope next or very soon goes unlawfuls as they need some love as well, arguably more than corporations as those pretty much have ores already. Namely giving some bonus to Pirate ID, Outcast, Rogues, GC, Hackers, Corsairs, Unioners, Hogosha, Farmers, Hessians and the like with their respective contraband commodities and not just on the landing site.

how will this work for the average trader? is it the profit is increased per run, official faction bonus, some sort of event plugin, or something else?

Event plugin rewards you the cash bonus upon completing the run.

I actually initially made 2 versions where the factions with Official status got a higher bonus than the indies but the plugin didn't like that at all for the same commodity, and start/end bases. Didn't have time to investigate the code further, so made it same for indie or OF for now, having already spent way too many hours on it.

Because this is basically 11 Trade events in one, its like 230 lines of edits across 3 files, plus the special snowflake commodity that was temporarily added. (Infocard courtesy of @ViciousJeff by the way props to him!), prolly (roughly guessing) spent 15+ hours total.

A lot of this time sink will be reduced though with the event editor application I'm working on
