Red Herring: Do you understand how the Coluber ships relate to their names?
I'm after the difference between Coluber CPV-9333 Pitviper & Coluber CPV-12375 Pitviper Mk. II
I think that the first is Coluber Pitviper. But the second?
Coluber is a snake: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_racer, I will be happy to find out the differences for you tomorrow after my first coffee. Today, I am a bit exhausted, shouldn't even start this page.
Btw, thanks for helping out, really appreciated. :)

It seems you found the difference in the meanwhile, at least there are link for both ships.

No, I didn't! I merely found references to both which never explained what the second was, which oxp it was in or anything else. I was looking at that page again just shortly before seeing your message here (I'd written that piece back in December last year!).
BHG
- 1) is "Marks at the GalCop Security Offices are not indent with the ones in the cantinas !" supposed to be identical?
- 2) what are you thinking of for this one? Is it partly modelled on Elite Trader OXZ? Have you tried it? There are messages from the guild and a helpful guild office, etc.
- 3) as regards coming up with ideas, this is not my area. But it seems very much to be Wyvern's area - he's written several oxp's aimed at bounty hunters.
- 1) The marks could, but need not, be the same. GalCop is looking for criminals, sometimes exclusively for their members, while the cantinas offer "killer for hire" as well.
- 2) I admit that I never tried it. The "you ain't not kill" cause isn't working particular well for a bounty hunter guild member. However, I will have a look with in the code.
- 3) I guessed that you will response like that, seems I need to update it step by step whenever I got a new inspiration.
Thank you for your proofreading, I rely nowadays too much on autocorrection, sometimes with unwanted results.

- 1) so it's just a case of adding to the GalCop list? That might be easier to programme, I guess...
- 2) The reason I feel it is relevant is the way in which Guild Members are treated in-game by the Guild... it's cleverly done
- 3) One idea so far is looking at Elite Trader.
- Another is to give choice between a heavy Guild with lots of oomph (as seemingly preferred by both you and Wyvern) and a much less impressive Guild in an Ooniverse without the Galactic Navy, where GalCop has few resources and can do much less. Maybe a switch in Lib_Config on the F4 screen?
