Running 4.85 Update 3. There are 3 Freelancer ID's with the same description (But different Icons) for sale at Planet Erie. I looked at the Infocards using InfocardIE and there are 8 freelancer ID's listed with the same description. I assume one of these is the regular freelancer ID, 1 the civilian ID, 1 the Independent miner, 1 the Independent trader, 1 the Freelancer Pirate, 1 the Freelancer Slaver, and 1 is maybe Freelancer Researcher and 1 the freelancer smuggler. That's 8 anyway.
The reason I came accross this was that I noticed it gave a new player a freelancer ID. I run a server and want my new players to start out with a Civilian ID, but when I modified the New player file it still gave me a freelanceer ID using the dsy_license_freelancer, which was the license for a civilian.
So I went to flinfocardIE to find the ID's so I could do a server side edit of the ID card with dsacesrv.cfg. Found more than I bargained for. 8 freelancer ID's with descriptions. So I Have no idea which one to modify. I could try all 8 and I might, but it just looks kind of strange seeing 3 freelancer ID's for sale with different icons.

For your own server you will have to adjust the text of the infocards via FLhook.
I understand that. But why would they change all the freelancer ID's (piratce, miner, smuggler and so on) to just freelancer? This will also affect mining. If the person doesn't have the correct ID they won't get the proper drop no matter what their IFF, ship and weapons are. You won't be able to find the proper miner ID cause it will just say Freelancer ID.
I'm sorry, but this is a fairly serious flaw due to it affecting mining. Hopefully they'll get it fixed by the next update.
