Another idea- taxing

Mon Jul 09, 2007 7:11 am by sona1111

i dont know if this is possible, but im some mods ive noticed they have added the connand keys for twist (roll) that were not in original FL, but i was wondering if their could be a key to assign to "tax" (or fine) where it would open a trade window where you set an amount of money and then the player youve selected gets the little "demend" window (like the one from npcs). if they click accept you get the money and they go on their way, if they click deny then you get a noise like.....that clunk or something and you can start killing them.

This idea is decent, but if you don't mind me asking, what could this be used for more specificly? Just from what I'm getting, it sounds like another way to start fighting people.

its simple, pirating people was not really well covered in FL, like the npcs could tax you (demand window), but you could not tax them. i think this should be added. the porpose? well its simple, and trade ship can be taxed and if they dontwant to pay they can be destroyed.they may be destroyed anyway, but taxing may get more out of them. (if the pirate is honest (dosent kill after taxing) then the players may pay thhe tax morew they reject it)

Sounds like a good idea if someone was able to get it working.

Sounds like something for the FLHook plugin guys.

You could, you know, just do it the old fashioned RP way - the minute the letters "no" appear in the system chat, you blow them out of the sky. And even if they say "yes", you blow them out of the sky anyways.
