A couple of ideas that you might like to think about
Move the bar to the opposite side of the planet from the witchpoint. This will stop it making anarchies an easier trading destination and make it harder to reach just to make a quick Credit.
Increase the variation in the spacebar shipyard so that only a few have high tech levels. Thus you will need to find the correct bar to have repairs made to damaged equipment.
The Spacebar being very far away interferes with the occasional fight that awaits you. If you get there after a 6LY jump, its nice to have at least some injector fuel left. If you use that remaining fuel to get there and fight hordes of pirates on the way, you will be helpless. Even if RH now re-fuels you, you don't always get close enough for docking and relaunch.

I thought about that too, but discarded the idea quite quickly. The position serves the main function, offering random hits, just fine. It's just the market that needs a little rethinking.

High TL shipyard makes sense as in my thinking these are also garages for bounty hunters and as such should offer repairing services. If something need to be done about it, then limiting the shipyard for clean bounty hunters with some standing would be the way to go. That way the occasional trader would not benefit from the high TL shipyard. Limiting would also give some more character to the Bar.

Hell, what's wrong with earning money??
Absolutely nothing as long as it's not too easy. Then it's no fun at all.
I had a strange experience: I made it to a well respected sheriff after a kill, before that I was a serious hunter or something like that. Both sound quite serious. After that I could not find anything on my route eastbound so I accepted a 2500Cr. kill. Usually I'm into the 4-5000Cr. business. After successful termination of that contract, I was "promoted" to recently joined provost, the title I earned at the beginning of my career. Is this a bug? Or is this intended, that a low profile job destroys your entire ranking?
Actually Provost is better than Sheriff so you've just been promoted. If you really were Provost in the beginning, then there is a problem somewhere. For reference, titles in order are:
Ah, thanks. I may have mistaken this, I think I was a Bailiff, but I killed a Provost once, hence the familiarity with that name.
Sorry for the confusion.
(I've never heard the words Bailiff or Provost before...)
* View long range map in mission offer screens. Thanks to ralph_hh for suggesting.
* Fixed escorts to escort_roles and added some variation to the number of escorts. This was a little broken when like_shipping.
* pirate-victim-roles.plist changed to role-categories.plist.
Uh, whow! Great. I love this game, this forum and the constand support of this community!
Thanks a lot, I'll update RH as soon as I get my hands on the PC.
And another small problem (latest version used with latest trunk) with variable expansion
Thanks for reporting. I thought I had already fixed that one . One question, have you just dealt with revenge? And is that warning from a screen after docking or communication from another ship?
Thanks for the typo report also. It'll be fixed in the next version.
* Typo corrected from descriptions.plist.
* Revenge description expansion bug most likely fixed . Please keep on reporting if it still happens. One successful hit is required to reset it if it's currently happening. After that, the bug should be gone. I hope.
* If mission instructions happens to bee too wide, plain ship name is used. Random ship names can sometimes be very long.
