Quote:3.) The cooperation is between IDs that can ally, but they share a tag. Suddenly, it's a "faction rule violation"!
It's not, if vessels have same LNS or HMS prefixes (LN+LSF+LPI and BAF+BIS+BP) yet even RNC are also acceptable (RM+MND) - however they cannot share a tag. The workaround is made like this:
UA| - basic tag for let's say Universal Army (FL ID).
UA-M| - tag for Universal Army's Miners (Miner ID).
UA-I| - tag for Universal Army's Intel of whatever it is (Pirate ID).
However, there is possibility that two latter IDs may not cooperate, but we need admins to speak about it as I don't know which Generic IDs cannot work together (however, Miner ID does not factually forbid cooperating with Pirate ID guys - and Pirate ID says player MAY pirate, what doesn't mean it MUST be done).
Yet there's another line from Pirate ID:
Quote:Can attack any ship in self-defense or to protect a ship of the same affiliation.
And there are two lines from Miner ID:
Quote:Can attack any ship in self-defense or to protect an allied or neutral ship.
Quote:Cannot participate in unlawful actions except as described above.
Miner and Pirate are same affiliation (Freelancer IFF), so does that mean they may cooperate then? What about the Miner ID lines then? Does it forbid cooperation between the both? Or not? Or Allied ship could be Pirate ID same IFF ship?
