I am not sure about this idea. Eh.

Anything I say is not intended as offensive, and to try and deliberately misinterpret it as such would be an attempt at trolling via misrepresentation.

It's not a conspiracy, it's localised bias. They're not intelligent enough to form a conspiracy.

Is there a button that pops up the following dialogue box?
"This idea has epic win!"

If so, I press it. This would make faction traders much more profitable that stay in-line with RP, make pirates relocated and get them out of the major House-House artery trade lanes, not to mention could force the lol'wut traders or power traders to rethink their entire strategy for money.

My only concern is that aren't all items under a 'universal' code? I think I remember a few ideas popping up to increase missile capacity on some ships or something, but was shot down due to the way the game engine reads codes on items. I think, I stress that.

This idea is very good and well thought out, the major issue is the Freelancer Engine. Will it be workable? Or cry like a newborn baby?

Also Cannon and Xoria, I pray to thee! Please invoke thy thoughts on this matter, so that my college keyboard may rest in peace, and that traders my trade in peace!

My only issue is that this might require another revamp of the entire trading system. After all the work Xoria and all the others put into it... it would be a shame to go right ahead and say "Do it all again."

Other than that it seems like it's a good idea. But should be worked in carefully so as to not disrupt the current trade system too much.

Been lurking around a bit... but this idea is too good to just read and go on to the next thread :crazy:
Great idea... IF... it could be implemented... so I guess it'll be up to the mod devs to declare if it's possible or not.

Yep I like the idea, but it may be a lot of work for the developers, not sure if it's possible.

Thanks for all the positive feedback on this idea, gentlemen.

Now I'd just like to see what some developers have to say about this, or even Xoria himself. I'd like to hear what the big man himself has to say about this.



Maybe the reason he hasn't responded is because he had a heart attack after reading this...
(Hah.)

I think the biggest issue is whether it will be doable with FLhook. That requires Cannons time. It is my understanding Cannon does not have free time due to his current developmental workload. If I see him on I will ask if he has a moment. The alternative is you can start learning how to progrem in C++.

I have tried programming.
I have failed, as much as I have wanted to learn.

This leaves me useless to increasing the progress and improvement of the Discovery Mod...
Unless you want me to write infocards or something. Heh.
