i was just wondering what codes and shipsales are and how they work. like, how do you buy/sell ships from other players?
and also i hear things about codes from time to time. i am curious as to what they are?
Ships can be bought or sold on the market by players using /givecash <character > <amount> to exchange credits, and using /set movecharcode <code> and /movechar <character name> <code> to move a character (Ship)
/givecash simply sends the indicated amount in credits to the indicated character name. /set movecharcode sets the code that is needed to move a character /movechar moves a character using the /set charmovecode code.
Codes (also known as codenames or codies) are simply tier 10 fighter weapons, which are unable to be bought from any vendor in the game. They must be discovered in wrecks (The little red X's on your map) or bought from other players.
For example, if I wanted to sell a ship that was on a character called 'Steve', I would set the characters move code like this:
Quote:/set movecharcode 1234
Note that you have to be logged into that character to set its move code.
I would then make a post in the ship sale section of the forum. Once somebody has decided to purchase said ship, they would send the credits to me like this:
Quote:/givecash Dragonego 10000000
I would then send the player purchasing the ship a private message telling him what the characters move code is. He would then go in game, log onto one of his existing characters and type:
Quote:/movechar Steve 1234
He would then be disconnected as the server updates his accounts characters. He could reconnect straight away.
The character should now have been moved to his account and be ready for him to use:)
thank you for the explanation it was everything i needed to know =)
but wouldnt all the red x ships have been looted anyway (long time freelancer player only just started online)

Most likely. But they do reappear after server restarts.
