This script adds various items onto the BBS

1. Station Positions

An offer to sell you the position data for all stations in the sector, when accepting, this will show up all the stations onto
you sector map, so you dont have to search around for them, this is avaialble from trading stations

2. Gate Positions

Like the station positions, this reveals all the gates in a sector, so its handy if you having trouble finding a gate

3. Buying Capitol Ships

Available in pirate bases, this will give an offer to buy a capitol ship, there will be an m6, m2 and m1 available
The price you pay will be the same as what it costs at a shipyard, but the ship will be damaged so you have to pay to get it repaired
this is for when you dont have the rep to buy one from a shipyard and have to rely on pirate ship traders instead

When buying, you will be told the sector its in, the ship will be protected by yaki, taking out all the yaki will turn the
ship to urs

4. Winnable Lottery

This script adds a BBS entry to allow you to do a lottery that you can win ships and money

Prizes:
1'000'000 Cash Prize
1'500'000 Cash Prize
2'000'000 Cash Prize

Any M5 Class Ship include variants
Any M4 Class Ship include variants
Any M3 Class Ship include variants

All you need to do is pick one of the numbers, the lottery tickets, and you will be notified abit later if you win and you will get ur prize

5. Insurance Dealer

This script adds a BBS entry to allow you to do buy salavage insurance from the BBS
the cost will be abit more than what it would cost from the goner temple, but would be more conveniant when your the other side of the universe

6. Reputation Hack

Available from pirate stations, a pirate hacker will offer to hack you race reputation to you can b ecome more friendly with them
the cost will vary depending on how bad your reputation is.
This will only be available if you have a low reputation and will put you up to just a bout friendly terms, ie midway up the ranks
if your already that high, then you wont be able to use it to go higher

7. Goner Dealer

You will find a goner dealer selling jumpdrives and transporter devices on the BBS to install on your ship.
However, the price would be more than it would cost at the goner temple.

No stopping you even on Christmas day.... ...

[Crush]

keep em coming! scripts are great!

[Dgn Master]

Your the man!.. thanks to you X3 is finally starting to feel more alive.

[x2newbie1]

I just tried this to get a pirate M1. But nothing happens. Is it in the trade menu or the BBS menu? I tried both and see nothing new. Is there something special I need to do to activate this?

[Dgn Master]

You would find them in the BBS menu, but it won't show up all the time. You may have to visit alot of pirate bases to have this particular mission show up.

[Yellowman]

WOW cool script ur tha man!

[Cycrow]

yeah it just adds BBS messages, so they wont always be there

[Yellowman]

mmmmmmmm i've tried to find the bbs mission where u can get urself a M1 M2 or M6 as u said.
But i cant find it at any pirate station i've tried the whole day and just nothing.

The only thing it say's sometimes is a error in the BBS is it posted by Uknown and the text is ''Error 124'' or something like that.

What could it be Cycrow.

[Cycrow]

does it display some readtext thing ?

it shouldn't be all that rare so if u've been looking at various pirate bases, then theres a good chance there might be a bug

i will check

[Cycrow]

i just tested it out, and the first pirate base i went to it showed up
anyways, i increased the chance of it showing up, so you should be able to find it now


V1.10
* Increased chance for pirate capitol ships
* Added Winnable Lottery
* Added Insurance Dealer

[Yellowman]

I thank u cycrow GJ

[Morthais]

Hey,

Nice work, but I noticed that, when I bought the gate showing thingy in Sacred Relic (I know, I'm lazy), it didn't show the supergate to interworlds.

Is this a feature or a bug

[Cycrow]

i've not actaully tested it for the supergates, so they might show up differnetly, ill have to have a look

[Sandalpocalypse]

Pirate capital ships available for the same price for no rep requirement? That doesn't seem right. :/

I guess I say that because I use the Hull-Repair-Tech script...

Still, maybe something that made getting a pirate capital ship more involved?
