Exactly what it says in the subject line.
I am looking at a mod that does what Simoom's lantern does, but not the cheaty way.
So, basically you get on good terms with the faction, talk to any station manager on that NPC station to purchase that station. Is there a mod that does just that?
- Or if not, could someone be motivated to make such a mod?
- Or is there an existing mod that could be adapted to fit this purpose?
Thanks
Is there a mod that allows purchase of stations from NPC's

Re: Is there a mod that allows purchase of stations from NPC's
I was actually thinking about something like this together with changing the build missions, so when you build a station as part of a mission the station afterwards goes to the faction of the client, like in X3. I dont know how to write something like this, but i can do it, if i get to know how.
Re: Is there a mod that allows purchase of stations from NPC's
I have a heavily modified X3R and X3RVR installation.
The only missions I get on the BB are:
- Protect station from Xenon / Criminal attack
- Another gate open
- Specific missions that you get with the chosen game-starts
No taxi-ferry missions or escort ship missions ever feature on the BB anymore (like in vanilla). The build a station station missions don't show up either. Do you know if the build missions only happen with a certain game-start?
Great idea to use the building missions I was thinking another route gameplay wise:
- You acquire a manager that you put on a station (like the trade agents)
- When assigned to a station and communicating with him there is an option to buy said station.
- Then the station changes over to your faction and the credits are removed.
- The relationship between the faction that sold you the station and you gets an upgrade.
I cannot write this either and don't have any idea where to look, to collate all parts together. Sadly.
I was hoping that someone wrote a mod like this in the past and that I overlooked it.

Re: Is there a mod that allows purchase of stations from NPC's
Ok
Apparently there is.
It's a mod by Marvin Martian:
called mm_realestate
This is the way to purchase a station with Creditsssss.
- You go to the Station Administration District and dock there (on any station) -
- Find the manager (person in the Burgundy uniform)
- Initiate talk and choose the 'Real Estate' option.
- You will then be presented with both options shown in the screenshot above. Buying the station was greyed out for me because my balance was insufficient.
