Rask Akabars Pirated Vessels Emporium - finished!

Post by Omicron »

heres an extract from the readme:

=========================
=========================
HooD Corporation
=========================
INCOMING TRANSMISSION
=========================

Good Day to you Sir/Madam!

My name is Omicron, Founder of HooD Corporation and Vice Admiral of the UNCC

I come to you with a message from the legendary pirate Rask Akabar himself!

MESSAGE BEGINS:

Greetings to you!

I have been tracking your activities for some time now, and have decided to let you in on a secret project
that i have been working on for quite some time now, i have recently discovered a method of, shall we say,
procuring some of the more 'exotic' vessels from around the Universe, and have put them up for sale at my
secret shipyard.... for a price. i have also set up a second station selling some of the rarer weapons from
around the universe...

i must apologise, i cannot tell you directly where these stations are, for fear this message is intercepted,
after all, many of the races will not be happy with me selling off such dangerous vessels to the public.
i can give you only this clue:

'my shipyard is in a place of shadow, while my weapons station is in a place of light'

im sure you can figure that out for yourself...

i hope to see you at Rask Akabar's Pirated Vessel Emporium very soon, my friend

Kouun to you!

MESSAGE ENDS

so there you have it, i must say i have been buying from Rask for quite a while, and his service is excellent!
make sure you stop off at his Emporium today!



=========================

HooD Corporation

TRANSMISSION ENDS
=========================



the script should be on xscripting.com asap, im going to go upload it now...

heres some of my aims for v1.1:

>Create another shipyard selling yet more 'exotic' ships.

>Transmit the message at the top of this page via the in-game message service.

>make the ships/weapons cost more.

>possibly re-position the existing stations


:D

hope you all like!

hey, Rask is a pirate, selling extremely dangerous ships that would, in the wrong hands, present a real problem to the various races of the X-Universe... hes hardly gonna stick his shipyard in the middle of argon prime is he?!?!?! :lol:

anywho, sleep time for me after a hard days scripting, hopefully i'll have feedback from a few more people by tomoro...
