More alien outfits #16

Open jerith opened 4 years ago

jerith commented 4 years ago

I've noticed that Ursa Polaris doesn't stock Coalition or Korath outfits, both of which are (eventually) available for purchase in other places. Is there a particular reason for this? Should I look into writing some missions to add them to UP's stock?

I'm thinking that for the Coalition it might make sense for the mission to involve something non-monetary, perhaps some kind of technology trade involving Human and Hai outfits to demonstrate community and unity.

Korath: I didn't think the outfits available for purchase were worthy of stocking, but if there are many others out there that wish they were at UPS, I'd consider adding it.

As for the Coalition, most of the purchasable outfits are not really worth it (cooling modules being the exception). I had considered doing the same thing as all the other races, but I kinda wanted more story, and don't really have time to write it.

If you would like to, feel free to pull it...

Even if the outfits aren't really worth using, I think it makes sense for UP to want them on the shelves just for completeness. After all, there's plenty of money to be made from people who think anything alien must be better just because it's alien. Besides, it's probably worth the investment just to see what ideas the R&D team comes up with after dismantling a few more weird alien gizmos... ;-)

If I can come up with some interesting and appropriate story for either of those factions, I'll open a pull request.
