It could be added as a engine too y'know v.v Or added as another shield hardpoint (get rid of all class 1 shields or just class 1 light fighter shields)
look at ************, They added IDs, Power Capacitors, Power Cells, Shield Capacitors, Shields something, Regular Shields, Engines, Powerplants, armor upgrades, and alot of other neat little goodies.
' Wrote:I have been pondering this. Not sure exactly the best way to achieve it. Can't necessarily do it by ID as many requests are to use a particular ID and IFF.
I think possibly a new piece of equipment or cargo. A special RP item...if you see it then the ship/id/iff/whatever is probably approved. Not sure if this is a good idea or not.
We ran into this problem with MB52's Order Liberty Battlecruiser yesterday, and I suggested something along these lines. I don't see a flaw in this idea, really.
' Wrote:Remove the hull upgrade, incorporate the hull multiplier (but not it's cost) into the ships (come on, almost nobody who isn't a complete newbie here flies without a Mk 8 upgrade anyways, it just artificially rises the price of ships) and use the slot for things like this. People'd need to grind less and those with an approved special RP request would get less "ONOZ OORP" idiocy, so it'd be a win-win.
You'd need one for all the possible cap armour upgrades. The T-bay flies with a cap 7, and possibly a cap8 in the future if I get bored and trade enough to pay for one.:P

It wasn't too big of a deal, the thing is I tried to tell the poor fella that I had a special RP without going oorp to do so. Which.. might have confused him further...:mellow:
Iâll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because itâs flag that I love
And a flag that I trust
Items can be made so they dont drop even if its just Cargo.
To be honest, I don't think this is necessary......
If someone goes "//wtf? Hacker Lib Assault Carrier?! OORP" or "//zomg.....AI ship with non AI guns...abuse!" or "//thats....interesting, an Outcast flying a Praefect.....lolwut?"
Ignore em, they obviously dont know what Special RP is anyways, or where to validate that the character Is indeed a special RP approved character.
If they want to sanction you, let them, Admins know how to validate that the character is not in violation of the terms of the special RP request that was approved, so its not like you'll be at any risk for doing what ya do.
