    • Is it possible to make a gun unsellable?


      I would like to find out how to make a gun that is buyable but can't be sold. This has to be done in EV, I would like it like the mass expansion. Please tell me it can be done!

    • I didn't think so...(sigh)... The goal was to make buying a ship form a government makes you have to keep their weapons. Have to ask people not to do it, but not many will.
      (Read the post wronge. Guess I was expecting it could be done :redface:)

    • There are a couple of options.

      One: make the outfit have techlevel 999, so that it can never be purchased or sold, because it never shows up in the outfit shop.

      Two: Set the "can't sell outfit" flag (that's 0x0008). This will allow the player to purchase the thing, but not sell it. If you also set the max number of the item to zero, the player will not be able to purchase or sell the outfit, but it will appear in the outfit shop. This may only work in EVO 1.0.2 - I haven't checked for backwards compatibility on this.

      However, you can't make it so that if the player is in one ship the outfit can be purchased and sold as normal, while if the player is using another ship, the outfit can't be sold, unless it's actually two different outfits - and having two different outfits doesn't work with weapons or ammunition, so that probably doesn't help you much.

    • Making the level 999 means you can't buy/sell it- I want it to be buyable but not sellable.
      The one with the 0008 is perfect- but it doesn't work with EV. If I make an Override version, I will use this.
      Thank you for trying to help.
