Why make a mod for freelancer, when all you need to do is buy X2 when it comes out. It has all you mentioned. You can go alone as a freelancer or command vast armies of ships from your very own battle ship. All in the name of profit.

....I didnt know that x2 would have that, whens it coming out? thank you trapper though you made my day if thats true, now I can look forward to something other than getting my next level in mp

Yes it true.

You can play like you play in freelancer, trading and doing merc work. or you can own the factories and make money that way. Then you can buy your own battle ships/carriers/fighters/transports that works for you. You can out fit any ship with any weapon depending on what weapon sizes they may carry and the same with shield.

But take note. Being able to buy a battleship will take long since it will be UBER expensive. Even in X-tension I have lost over 60 heavy fighters in a battle with the xenon for control for 2 of there sectors. I want to setup factories in those system which will make me a fortune in trade with the other systems, depending if I set my prices lower than other factories. The war with the xenon has already costed my over 600 million credits.

Also making money is not that easy since the X-universe uses a dynamic trade system based on supply and demand. So if you destroy all the Solar power plant factories in a system the demand for solar power will grow and you could make some heavy profit from that need. So yeah it makes it harder to earn money, but that where ppl like me ( CAPITILIST ) makes money fast.

And destroying transports could effect you as well since the company who owned that transport will need to buy a new one. ( ships don't magicly reappear in the game) when a ship is detroyed it's gone until a new one is bought which means trade with that factory will suffer from it's los driving prices up, and you might also loose a potential customer if he need your product.

Everything you do has a effect on the game. whether you notice it or at first you will later on in the game.
