X3AP: safer to sell illegal goods in commercial statiosn then using CAG/CLS ?

Post by Browser_ice » Sat, 9. Aug 14, 19:54

I have this complex where I have fuel and weed. I built it in the Yaki sector thinking it would be a safe spot, but often buyers get attacked by Yaki before even reaching my complex (even if I am right next to the gate).

Is it safer to drop a commercial station near a gate in a non-yaki/non-pirate sector and just drop my illegal goods in it ? Will my station get scanned by the police and such ?

I am just trying to find a the safest way to sell my illegal goods.

No it won't be scanned but it is a poor way of doing business just let the traders take their chances at docking at your plex you'll make money no matter how many would be buyers get greased.

If you are friends with the Yaki,and I presume you are, then it is probably the safest place in the universe for you.

This is simply because the Yaki do not tolerate other groups in their space, as you have found out.

They will even deal with any police that come for the odd ship you "forgot " to return


There are some pilots that have TSs on permanent commands to pick up loot. So if a trader gets blown up after buying your illegals, then you could just collect his cargo, return it to your complex and resell to the next chancer.

This.

The GOD machine will ***always*** make more addicts to trade with your complex.

Heck. Some people camp out and kill/board customers to return the products to the plex for multi-sales profits!
