Plug-in Request

Cheezy_Cracker

Hey Everyone!
I was hoping that in the interests of continuing to expand EV Nova, the plug-in developers could coninue to make new ways to earn money other than trading, mining, and doing missions. I was think that maybe a business plug-in could be created, where you could buy outfits, at extrememly large costs, that aren't a part of your ship, but are actually property on a planet. For example, an outfit that buys a shipyard where you can create your own ships with the right materials. To get the right materials you could buy a mining outfit that automatically supplied the shipyards. This way you can get a large, but steady supply of cash, and have virtually all the ships and upgrades available to you for free, since you own the company. I don't know whether or not anyone would be willing to do this, I know that my skill at plug-in developing is next to nothing, but I thought this would be a cool idea and decided to throw it out. Thanks!

Sounds like a good place to start learning. Try cracking th bible and figuring all this stuff out. I guarentee it will broaden your horizons, and teach you plug-in development at the same time.

Isn't there already a plugin that accomplishes much of this? Like the 'PlugPack' or something along those lines? It's the one where you can add officers and officers' quarters and whatnot to your ship as well as owning your own shipyard, eh?

Yup, Terek E'Ban's PlugPack v.16 lets you buy a shipyard and build your own ships. You also can open bank accounts and run a planet-bound mining operation.

Hmm...I thought the description said something about that, but i was never able to find where to buy that. I do have the plugin though, but I can't find the stuff I want.

If I remember correctly, the shipyard is in the Spica system (near Horizon?) and the mining operation is on Gem.

I have a good tip for you: Read the documentation
Its on the first page where all plugs are explained what they do. Its said there where to find the old shipyard.

Ha ha...I feel like such a nOOb now. It was right there the whole time. The one time I decided that I didn't feel like reading the documentation. Anyway, sorry to waste your time.

I don't agree. There are certain questions that are not to be asked here, which I will not give any examples of. I'm sure you can think of a few.
