    • Outfit Bit Set Fields


      Quick question, that I am too lazy to totally confirm myself. In an outfit, are the onPurchase and onSell fields evaluated anytime the outfit is gained/lost, or only when it is actually bought/sold? Because if it's the latter, that would make it kind of difficult to do a few things with the missions bits. Even simple things, like having a bit set when you have the outfit, and not otherwise. I know the contribute/require bits are one way of doing this, but not everything I want to control responds to them. Namely Junks. Anybody know for sure, or want to do a test for me?

      There's an NCB that evaluates to true if you have at least one outfit of that RID. Don't have the bible with me, but that's a much faster way to do things (-:

      That's true. But still, I've been using the Gxxx and Dxxx bits alot (Grant/Delete outfit)- sometimes in vital ways, and I'd like to be able to be sure they still work when you, say, capture a ship, or have your ship transferred by Exxx, for example.

    • Hmm... I'm not sure of the actual behavior, but it should be easy enough to make a quick plug to test it. Just test the scenarios you want to use and see what the results are.
