Atandros	Posted - 2005.01.06 21:25:00 - [1] The smuggler ship actually makes no sense; if there was such a ship on the market, anyone flying it would be subject to extra suspicion and scrutiny by customs, hence defeating its purpose.

Yes, if you paint "SMUGGLER BESTOWER" on the side of it, sure. But maybe we'll skip that part, huh? Regardless; if it looks and behaves exactly the same as a normal Bestower, then ANY Bestower that passes through customs will be subject to extra suspicion and scrutiny. Hence I think it would be better to do the smuggling thing via modules.

Atandros	Posted - 2005.01.07 15:13:00 - [5] Edited by: Atandros on 07/01/2005 15:14:02 Originally by: Arte Just because the police know that some one used a Ford Escort to smuggle drugs into a city, it doesn't mean that they will stop every Ford Escort in and around the city for search does it? But that's different. In that case, we have a standard vehicle that simply happens to have been used for smuggling; there's no inherent quality in a Ford Escort that makes it preferred by smugglers. In what I'm talking about, there is a standard transport vehicle and a vehicle that looks exactly like it but has something which makes it really good for smuggling. Hence customs would be more suspicious towards vehicles that look like that, wouldn't they?

Atandros	Posted - 2005.01.07 18:04:00 - [7] Originally by: Thrak Not really - if every race's indy has a smuggling equivalent, what are they going to do. Search every indy more? You are correct there are standard transport vehicles and vehicles that look exactly like it that can smuggle. Unfortunately for customs, every transport vehicle has this equivalent. What are you going to do now? Er, sure, but as I understand it the issue at hand concerns a single special smuggling-specialized ship, not a "smuggler version" of every indy.

Quote: - Slots: Similar to current indies of its race. = minimum 4 racial versions. Kthxbye. Well that's rather vague, it could also mean it concerns all indies of one (undecided upon) race.
