sell unique items/blueprints to planetary admins
« on: May 13, 2021, 05:37:34 PM »
I addition to AI cores, has selling unique industry items and blueprints to planet admins been considered?

In addition to credits, I would like to earn some faction rep from selling these types of things to different factions.

Thanks.

Hm. You know, it wouldn't be that hard to make a mod so that selling items that a colony can use will give you rep...

But yes, it feels like this is something the base game should do; if I sell a pristine nanoforge to a faction, they should darned well appreciate that.

Wyvern is 100% correct about the math.

It's a bit weird you can sell majority of those colony items just like that. A synchrotron core is something you should have to find a buyer for, not just sell anywhere.

How I imagine the exchange goes in game.

-Oi mate!
-Wot?
-Fancy a cheeky industrial scale antimatter processing nanoforge that can only be used in planets without atmosphere?
-Aight, how much?
-250k
-I'll take 3 of 'em

If you sell a synchotron core to somewhere that can use it in general they will then install it (same with nanoforges), but it's done via the general market like pirate blueprints on the black market. It would be cooler to have to sell them directly though

This is bloody brilliant. This need to be a thing.

I wouldn't mind working on a mod to do this if someone could help guide me in the right direction. My modding skills are fairly limited. In the past I have added some ships for personal use and got those to work based on guides available. I have also modified xml files before to tweak the game.
Thank you in advance for any and all help.
