You're a very evil man...;) Come to think of it, pirates with fake police transponders, and countermeasures could suddenly start to appear... :) The thing is, those graphic changes would only fool the player, all NPC would still know who's who. With some creative scripting though, the possibilities...

Ooh, this means that some naughty ships will be able to cloak themself under the guise of police or other vessels. The possibilities get really interesting then.

Hey pmw57! In fact, I don't think that playerStations.js has any issue residing within it at all. It's the OSE-populator.js where the issue resides instead. I thought so too. I will implement the code changes you suggest and go for a test drive. Edit: What exactly should I change in the OSE-populat...

Should point out nothing in Random Hits is hand coded, every message and BB board is randomly generated by the engine on the fly from the words listed in the arrays. The arrays are also nested so it could be a bit of a [random_hits_describe_pain] in the [random_hits_describe_place] to unravel them ...

I am asking for a JS routine that would extract the content of descriptions.plist automatically and put it in a list of JS arrays (or a three-dimensional JS-array, doesn't matter). That can not be one automatically from JS, but if you want to migrate the descriptions over you can use some backend p...

There's just one problem with pmw57's approach: expandDescription collapses an array of alternative strings into just one string. It does? Well that's news. Up until now I didn't realise that the descriptions were capable of random messages. Using the example above, only one of all possible 'mclane...

OK, then I will provide the playerStations.js and the OSE-populator.js currently residing on my harddrive: In fact, I don't think that playerStations.js has any issue residing within it at all. It's the OSE-populator.js where the issue resides instead. This code specifically: // add interstellar or...
