Purpose      : This is a small extension for adding wares to a player owned 
               trading station or equipment dock. Adding a ware will charge 
               the station 1000 credits per use. 

Use          : First off, you start the extension by using the new command 
               in a custom command slot of the station to which you 
               wish to add a ware. Next, select a factory or station that 
               contains the desired ware, and after that the ware itself. 
               For removing a ware you select the owned station instead, 
               and the ware you wish to remove. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

Installation : Copy the file to your X2 games directory, typically 
               C:\Program Files\EGOSOFT\X2 - The Threat. Doubleclick and the 
               files will install themselves in the correct directories. 
               Or extract them in a directory of your choice and copy them 
               manually like this: 

               plugin.add.remove.xml 
               setup.plugin.add.remove.dockware.xml -> ..\scripts\ 

               448000.xml 
               498000.xml (if available)            -> ..\t\

Nice! Keep'em comin

[CanadianBrit]

Will this remove products added to the station prior to the installation of the script?

I hope so cos I've got some I could do with removing!

And it does.

Have removed the spacefly listing from my dock.

Good work Ticaki

Why should this cost you money. it not like the station has to retool for diffrent wares [Except perhaps slaves]

Plus can you set the maximum amount that can be stored, I'm feed up of having to visit half the universe to get enough 125mW shields for my new Cap Ships, not to mention B,G HEPT/PPC. Hell my little M3 can store more Beta HEPT than the trading dock/factory - That just don't make sense to me.

I agree, a script like this should let you downright specify the amount of cargo space devoted to a ware. Lets make trading stations useful already.

I think there is not a script command for that. Dock a stripped-out cargo ship there and transfer from the station as needed. Name it "Cargo Hulk 1".

Oh yeah?
Well, I feel another move coming on.
This post is completely off-topic in the main forum!
That's why I couldn't find it!

Great to see another script.

Good work and keep them comming!

Great, now i can get rid of all the rubbish i collected.

[fchopin]

So all this script does is add and remove ware from Trading Stations and Equipment Docks.

Quite useful really!

Great stuff, but when do we get a script to allow the EQD to stock upgrades. Or is that reserved for the new player HQ we've just been reading about.

[euclid]

Hmm......why should I want to remove a ware from my ED? Except, of course, in the case the list has growing too long because I've added too much stuff in the first place.

Also adding a ware is simple enough. Just dock a ship which has the ware and you can 'unload' it and set a price.

Is there any additional option provided by that script?

For example adding a ware which one cannot just add in the usual way (upgrades, jump drive etc.)?
Or does it allow to increase the max storage of a particular ware?

Right now I can't see any benefit.

Cheers Euclid

[fchopin]

The benefit is you can remove wares if you have made a mistake by adding to many wares in your EQ Dock and also you can add wares even if you have none in your ship.

Question: What happens if you have a BPH ship for an EQ Dock and then remove a ware from EQ Dock, do you have to set the BPH ship again or will it remember not to buy the removed ware?

I am working now so i can not try this to find the answer.

Answer: wait until you get home, then you can try it out

Nice one.

To make it up to you:
No, you don't need to make adjustments. Everytime BPH evaluates what's in stock. So it automatically detects new wares.

Thanks Spark, but you did not read my post correctly, i was asking about wares you remove form EQ Docks,does it also detect what you remove.
