you could add cargo to the specific ships like the starting ship loadout, but i dont think you can actually make them drop loot regardeless of the ship unless you added the cargo to every loadout of a ship that a player can start with. even so, they could always see it and sell it. In short: No, not without them knowing about it and being able to change it.

Unless one of those brilliant minds here on lancersreactor can figure something else out.

if you made a new hardpoint like the nomad ships have hpcloak than maybe you could put a piece of cargo there instead of a cloak and then make things from that hardpoint lootable... What do the experts reading this think?

A few threads below this one, Wasabe posted the solution to get players to drop loot when killed. For your convenience, i am posting the link to it HERE

hehe, if you would have let me on your mod team 2 months ago burnout, you could have had this solution and lots of other help then

But I would still really love to help out with the Freeworlds mod if you ever change your mind. . . =)

Thanks for that link. Wasabe is the man! Two months ago I was not in charge of the mod. I would love to have you on the mod team.

We've secretly replaced their dilithium crystals with new Folgers crystals. Now let's watch them go to warp.

Cool! I'm actually already in the devolpers group on the freeworlds website, but not on the USA 24/7 website (I am registered there though). I got frustrated a couple of months ago because nobody seemed to be in charge, nothing was getting done, and I was impatient

Right now most of my time is devoted to the Excelcia mod, but I'd still love to help out with the freeworlds mod if I could.

I just changed that. You are a developer on my forum now.

still though, what do you think about my idea Wasabe since you are afterall the greatest modder in the UNIVERSE

Well you can add cargo to any ship package, but it still won't drop unless you put in those custom fuse enteries.

Hi Wasabe ...
are you very human ?????? from which planet you come from ???
you are so excellent !!!!! congratulations !!!!
could you make a minimod to be able to drop the cargo space of when a player died ??? i think so many palyers and modders wait that ....
best regards .... GOD !!!!
