Yeah, I'm ok with the time investment to get back the money. It's just that I'm unsure if the money gets compounded by the station since a. the player is outside of the system b. timer events don't work when the player is outside the system. 2. I don't have the <OnGlobalPlayerLeftSystem> event, you...

Oh man! That is a sweet HUD! I'm downloading it now so I can check out that broadside, too. This is some good stuff.

Ok, well, I gave up on a perma so now I was able to last for more than 5 minutes ;) Anyways, I saw your station and got the account- two things: 1. Can I request a wireless credit card when you sign up for an account? It would have a DS that would let you specify what amount to withdraw, or deposit...

I used to play Anacreon back in the early/mid nineties. I don't really remember exactly when. My brother and I played it a lot, though. Seriously, hundreds of hours. I don't have the patience for a game like that anymore, and I suck at strategy games, so I don't think that I'll ever give it another ...

I'll definitely check out the ship; It sounds very interesting. I'll take a look at the weapons pack, too. I don't use wingmen, though, so I probably won't bother with that one. Also, I've been thinking about designing a missile launcher with an ammo fabricator. Would you mind if I reuse some of you...

The warning in Windows 7 is not nearly as strong (for instance, you can just hit enter to continue running instead of having to dive to an extra menu). On the one hand, I think it is a good thing: running a random EXE is probably the number one source of viruses. But it is true that it will make it...

I've made the stations more likely to spawn and moved the mod from the development section into the stations section. Changes may still be made if anyone has any suggestions, but for now it is finished.

I was trying to avoid looking like I'd just filed the serial numbers off. I'm glad you don't mind anyway.

Thanks, that confirms my research. I've reuploaded the mod with that fixed. I've also added multiple account types that you can upgrade to.

... Competing banks! ... Now there's an interesting thought. Banks that literally fight over customers. So I've discovered that backtracking leads to multiple recurring interest events per system. That shouldn't be too hard to fix. Will sysCancelTimerEvent work on recurring events? If so, the fix s...

new download link: http://xelerus.de/index.php?s=mod&id=1016 The CIG is a bank mod very similar to sdw's USB, but nowhere near as fancy. I made it just to suit my personal tastes a little more. I'd like to hear what everybody thinks of it. I welcome questions, comments, complaints, criticism, and es...

I'm glad you did answer. This is helping me understand the virtual stations and global events better.

Yeah, I was pretty impressed by the bank you did, but I have to confess I don't understand much of it's inner workings. That's why I'm handling things the way I am. I don't really grok the language yet. I'll look into <OnGlobalTopologyCreated>, though. That's probably what I was expecting <OnGlobalS...

I apparently don't understand it as well as I thought I did. It's working great. Here's a code snippet: <!-- CIG Global Virtual Station --> <StationType UNID="&stCIGGlobal;" name= "CIG Global" virtual= "True" > <Events> <OnGlobalSystemCreated> (sysCreateStation &stCIGGlobal; nil) </OnGlobalSystemCre...

I get it now.

Thanks for everything, guys.
