Trading system

I'm trying to make a mod with changing comidities prices. Me and my friend were playing Freelancer and my idea was to change the commidities inis from server over a windows shared folder to other clients. (I thing i dont have to explain that this is just a LAN Mod and not ment to be played online).

My idea was to get the commiditieinformation out of the database into the inis, with changing prices.

Do you know if theres a way to tell freelancer to reload the ini files (thats my main problem, dont want the people to restart freelancer every hour or the server crashes).

I dont want the prices behave in realtime. They just should change somehow during play one time an hour.

I think this would be a great addon for freelancer.

Does anybody ever tried something like this.

I modded my own faction, with own ships bases systems encounters and so on. so i'm not a beginner. This took me about three days. NOW I WANT MORE ....
