Hmmm as EVula and Mazca said, difficult. But I'll give it a go. Hopefully I won't run out of spob ID's.

If you think this is impossible, look at modType 27 first. If you still don't get it, email me and I'll try and whip up a demo plug.
And make more use of getting missions in places other than the bar. Is Barry the only one smart enough to do that?(yeah, ok, sigma and gli-tech do to, but they're minor strings).
And a more dynamic universe is allways good. I love the Wild Geese string because it branches so many times. If every main story line did this the game would be so awesome it'd be too awesome to play, the awesomeness would be so blindingly cool.
And don't rely entirely upon the random bit setter either, try and see if yo can abuse the mission resource to allow a player to 'fail' a mission by taking one groups cargo to a rival and switching sides, and the 'success' of that mission would just be doing what you were told initially. Being able to go traitor whenever you want basically.

To the missile launchers I say 'already done!' That feature (if you can call it that) was an idea I put in straight away for the good of relative realism. Making uses other than the bar? Hmmm, I have about 6 missions a side from either the shipyard or the outfitters but I think people are just used to using the bar. I have got into the habbit of as soon as I land checking the bar and I thnik others would have too.
Finally branching missions, well I don't know how much I can branch it for the Major threads but the Police and Pirate threads branch quite a lot. It will (hopefully) be able to do the Pirates or Police 4or5 times with different results. I don't think you can make it possible to take the cargo to the enemy and betray them. You could try I suppose using an invisible mission that tells you to take it to the enemy. But I don't know if you can force a mission to abort when another one is succesful.

i think that would be in the graphics resources, I don't do graphics so I'd wait till I get a ship artist before you get an answer to that.
And EVula, that is a very good idea. I think I'll try that, I'll let you guys know how I get on handling these requests.

where you would press number 1 on the keypad and you could land at Earth but also press number 2 and land, still on the same planet but a different part of the planet. (this probably has allready been included in some nova plug ins but I havent found one yet.)
