Loading weapons, ammo, engines, batts, and possibly ships as cargo

Oct 03, 2003 Urza link
Suppose i had a butt load of tach cannons in sector 9, but i never really went there. my only option is to go to 9 and sell them. Why cant i load em up as cargo, then carry them to some place useful? Just list them as cargo in the cargo screen so we can carry em some place else. Same for batts and engines and stuff.

This would allow "gun running" to. Say sector 657 cant sell projectile weapons legaly due to a ban. So projectile weapons would sell very very well there to the sector's shadyer inhabitents. So what do you do? Load up a marauder with sunflare launchers at 651 and fly to 657 and sell em for mucho dinero.

So from this, we get a whole new type of cargo, along with more possible trade routes and such. No more ships and stuff scattered in 18 where i'll never use it. i'll pull it all to 7.

I've been thinking this for some time now.

And then ppl like me get paid to search for contraband, but claim we didn't find any (assuming we get part of the action)
