Bahh, started a new game in the latest nightly, went to load up on hydrogen and there was non in stock.....never had that happen before.

 

Restarted and now hydrogen is aplenty. Who was stockpiling the H?, come on admit it you know who you are.

The SPA member has a variety of privileges in the galaxy.

 

There are rumors that the mafia is involved in the union and have purchased many cops who even see in some of its agencies sometimes. Only this can explain its rapid expansion in all factions. The Mafia has long arms and apparently controls the fuel market, among other things.

 

Just like in the 21st century. 🙂

Well... Did you sell them the ton in your hold at a ridiculously inflated price..?

 

If not, why not!

The economics will improve, once it's brought under Lua control. We'll have simple systems, with a decent UI, which allow for such things as bulletin board ads offering high prices for scarce goods. There will also be some profitability to transporting simple stuff, like oxygen and water, from planets up to orbital stations, with more complex goods offering the big profits for interplanetary trade.

Additionally, with the code being in replaceable Lua scripts rather than being compiled into core, it will be extensible and modifiable. Economy mods will be pretty easy to make.

We don't have a timescale yet, but rest assured that it's not being ignored.
