Some good suggestions there. Yet for weapons you would need to find someone who was able to mount them, since I do believe it will not sell you any weapons unless you can mount it first, right? Still trying to get this mod down is all why what may seem to be obvious answer questions.

ok New here still working things out, but here is the glitch. I would like ot buy a basic large cargo ship, not one so bit it is limited to landing locaitons, but one which can land anywhere with a good sizes cargo to make available the widest aray of routes possible.

A basic list of said ships wold be nice, not al the info, just say their locaiton, cargo size and if they require any special things to land or can land anywhere. Then let the people have to fly to location ot check out all the restof the stats, prices, weapons arrays and such. A basix sort of like the nice univers map that was posted. Just enough to guide someone where they need to go, but not give everything away. Maybe a news listing of cargo and fighter ships, locations and basics, So one could go to any bar on a locaiton and "watch the sales ads for ships in a way", like car ads on TV...

This way I could see the ships cargo size, have it stated if it needs docking portals to land or if it can land on any sation and planet, and where it is located. That then gives a person enough info, to know where to go to check prices, weapons arrays and such on site.

Just a thought, I even in desperation tried to yes, dig out my old datastorm to look over available ships, but it would not even unzip for me anymore bad copy I guess. So I am forced to have to come here and bother you nice people which I am sure probably have more important issues to deal with. Nope do not like to "Cheat" as it were, but we all have limited time to play and I like ot make themost of it as possible.

So sorry for the inconveniance

ok, People say I am a perfectionist in some ways and I will not cross my wife. Currently though she is asleep so I am free free free, umm sorry lost track.

ok, Crossfire server is designated as a Role Play server as I understand it.

With this I have a bit of a problem, but mind you I am only a few hours old on the server so perhaps I missed something here.

When I started my character it was with a roleplay mentality so I worked hard at trying to get my character neutral with as many facitons as I could, pop off a police there, a xeno here, a cargo there, check profile rankings, wash rinse repeat.

Why you ask? Well, I had wanted ot make a bounty hunter character. As such, the basic roleplay of any bounty hunter in many of the games i have played over the years is they need to go here, get there, deal with legal factions as well as criminal. Ergo the obvious thought here was try to make the character as much as possible, able to land, deal, purchase, buy, swindle, head hunt on as many faction locations as possible.

However and here is the glitch, now that I am about ready to go get a better ship "with a large neutral facition profile", people will not sell to me because I am not "Friendly" enough. WTF!!!!!! OH Sorry I mean HUU!!! As far as I know, if you can get somewhere in the real world, AND have the cash, you can buy, sell, trade, or launder, about anything to include weapons, arms, ammo, fighter planes, tanks you name it.

So, here is my basic sugesiton if you have not seen it comming yet, why not make it that "IF" you can land on a locaiton, then by natural selection, you shuold "IF" you have the cash, be able to deal, trade, buy and sell on same said locaiton, with and for what ever is on sale there. In this way you would actually be dealing with a more realistic roleplaying model for those of us, umm nonperfectionist.

Other wise if this is simply too unconcevable for many, "Psst, Hey server admins, Wanna Make a deal I have a few billion on hand and need a fast ship fully loaded for the Kessel run" hint hint....

Seriously though, if you can land you should be able to buy that simple.
