Small bug fix:
In "LifeInTheFrontier.js" file, in the "this.$loadOXPFlags" function, the following code is incorrect:

Code: Select all

            if (vartype = "S") {
                this.LITF_flags[varname] = OXPFlagsItem[1];
            } else if (vartype = "N") {
                this.LITF_flags[varname] = parseInt(OXPFlagsItem[1]);
            }
It should be

Code: Select all

            if (vartype == "S") {
                this.LITF_flags[varname] = OXPFlagsItem[1];
            } else if (vartype == "N") {
                this.LITF_flags[varname] = parseInt(OXPFlagsItem[1]);
            }

Pirate Coves

These could well constitute an adventure in themselves.

Possibilities include:
- exorbitant docking fees
- attempts at hostile boarding by residents on docking - and the need to fight them off!
- one's ship being broken into if one disembarks
- stowaways (fugitives, refugee members of other gangs, etc.)
- being prevented from returning to one's ship
- difficulties buying fuel/equipment, accessing commodities markets... (and thus a need to bribe/threaten etc)
- being attacked by relatives/friends of a pirate ship crew that one has recently annihilated - or having ship equipment disabled by them (fuel injectors, lasers or missiles damaged) - this could also introduce new security equipment for sale - Choob's Bolts?
