For future ideas...

1).(This sounds like it should be easy, but since it hasn't been done yet, I'm thinking it's really a stumper). Make a base that keeps ships you've sold there on sale until they're bought again. Must be base specific and ships you've bought should disappear and be replaced with the one you sold.

2). Make the buy and sell price of ships $0.00 at one base. Normal price at other bases.

Put these two together and you're about halfway to having a "Home Base" Mod!

If you can do the same to weapons and items there, you've got it licked!

Is it possible to make juni's ship pilotable (the defender with the vertical tail wing)? I'm sure the model is available there somewhere but I don't know if the ship is even in any of the ini's etc.

If you're interested, the Reckoning project can always use more ship converters and generally inspired people.

i was wondering if it was possible if you could create nano weapons that you could shoot as ammo and they'd fight for you..that might be a cool idea if it would work.

Thanks Cheese. I am working out some minor bugs before I email you with some ideas. Little code errors, etc. I f you like I will email you my mod files and you can take a look. I forgot to mention one other item in the mod. Missile turrets. I have always enjoyed the idea of leaving a nasty surprise for someone chasing you. Switch into rear view, and drop 4 missile out at the guys chasing your freighter. They are ready to go, I am just trying to find a better icon to represent them in the scan and purchase screens.

I have also decided to leave all the standard ships in the game, and provide about 5 or 6 empty hulls, one in each territory. At the shipyards you will be able to build a custom ship using these hulls. That will be the only place to buy engines and the like. Can you think of a way to make it so you can't buy/sell them for any ships but the empty hulls? I was thinking you could mod hardpoints in some way.
