Some questions about hardcoded(?) things... - William Frederick Cody - 12-16-2008
Is it possible, to bypass the possibilities of buying a new ship from a ship trader, that is 5.9 bars red with them? Or not?
Can we input new system background pictures? Or not?

No to your first question yes to your second
First requires source code which we dont have

If yes, i suggest this, this, this (for docked at planet) or this nice picture.
All are based on this fine NASA archive.
I am unsure about the using & copyright problems. Could we use this pictures?
Edit:
Remember: This arent only pictures, but photos from real Space. Some may fit for freelancer feeling if added in the game.

Third one wont work 4th might the first 2 as well for the same as the 4th. Im almost positive we can change backgrounds.

The system backgrounds are based on where they are in Sirius. Fly through the Belt systems sometime, it's surprising how you notice the big ice belt in the background move each time you change system.

U mean the icebelt, that marks the horizontal line, that is normal in space if system had a sun. Or did i misunderstood you?

I mean the Barrier sorry, between Bretonia and Liberty. Giant belt of Ice etc.

I know we can mess around with the lights on the ships, but would it be possible to apply decals? Ship name? faction name? character name? *grins evilly* fighters/bombers/capship death icons?
The game already plasters the char name & tag, but having, say, OPG or =LSF= on the side would be cool.
the game does count the fighters/bombers/caps that you've killed in that char, is it possible to paste some icons together, so it displays under the cockpit?
