To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

First off, thanks for Pioneer. It is looking really, really good. I apreciate the hard work and time that you all put into this.
I have a silly question. Let's pretend that I built a spaceship simulator for kids, and that this spaceship simulator just happens to run Pioneer, and let's say I wanted to change the illegal goods from things like "narcotics" and "slaves" to things like "ferrets" and "bacon". How hard would that be? Obviously the icon is simple enough to change but how could I change the rest? Is something like that even possible? I looked through the LUA scripts but I didn't see anything there I could change. Is this impossible? Thank you!
You need to change the file "pioneerdatalangEnglish.txt", just search for the word you want to change and edit away. HOWEVER, there's two parts for narcotics for example the entry looks like this:
NARCOTICS
Narcotics
So to make it read Ferrets change it like this:
NARCOTICS
Ferrets
But make sure you leave the capitalised part unchanged because that's the string we lookup in the code to do the multilingual string replacements 😉
I don't know if this can be done as a mod or if you'll have to modify the original data but just ask and we'll help you out.

Actually, for those who might wish to tone down Pioneer's more adult aspects, this could be a good idea. A mod that could turn the standard game into a "junior edition" for younger spacefarers.
Oh man! Thanks so much Fluffy!
No problem, just let us know if there's anything else 🙂
illegal goods ... like "ferrets" and "bacon".
I used to think you were a good father, but you're obviously some kind of monster 😉
Agree, everyone should be entitled to bacon. :nyam:
Haha! I also added lemon cookies. Only a real degenerate eats lemon cookies.
