Something strange with prohibited goods

Postby Rhysling » Thu Jan 15, 2015 10:55 pm

Hi folks,

I've been using Artie's excellent companion tool around Gateway and the other systems I've been trading, and I've noticed something a bit strange. Specifically with tobacco (not sure about other goods), some docks/stations are openly trading this when the system map says it's a prohibited item at that station. It comes up under the "Legal drugs" section of the main market. I thought it might be because I'm allied with the controlling faction at Gateway, but I'm seeing the same thing at a station in Indaol.

Has anyone else noticed this, in other systems or with other goods?

Check what is prohibited by the systems controlling faction. That list overrides the stations prohibited goods.

That would make sense - and it fits with what I'm seeing in both systems. Thank you!
