Commodities and Datastorm - badkarmasix - 02-07-2007
I'm playing Discovery 4.82 OpenSP at the moment(wonderful mod, by the way, surely the best) and I downloaded FLDatastorm 3.91 just to see how well it works. Apart from having a touchy interface and somewhat inaccurate locations, it's not a bad program. It's great for anyone who wants to read the last page of the book first - but there's no fun in that. And as a reference tool it is useful.
Having played previous versions of Discovery, I've kept a logbook of commodities, ships, equipment, etc. I was browsing through Datastorm's equipment list, comparing it to my own to see how complete mine was, and I noticed an oddity. Datastorm shows a list of commodities that do not appear in Discovery. I've seen these particular commodities in other mods(Crossfire comes to mind, I think) and I was wondering if they are a part of Discovery? I checked the market commodities.ini and they don't appear there. Are they server-side only? Or is this an error in FLDatastorm?
A sample Datastorm entry:
rm_secret_military_codes(0)
Also, a comment about the mod - there is a marked lack in police/military inspections. I'm trading at the moment and I have only been inspected in Guard systems or near prison stations. Never in House systems though. Is this an OpenSP issue?
Cheers.

I belive I saw some of the older players arrying these Secret Millitary Codes in their hold once. I think they were used for an RP event but I am not sure.

I figured it wasn't a well-liked program. Rather defeated the purpose of "Discovery." I was just curious as to why these entries show in FLDatastorm when it is used on the Discovery mod. There's around 60 of 'em. If it's a bug, cool. If not, then what gives?
Cheers.

They're mission commodities, mate. You know, destroy cargo, tractor cargo, etc.

Ah. I see. Thanks.
Cheers.
