Smuggler cargo equipment for ships

Okay, so FD made it much harder to smuggle cargo with an update a while back. I believe it's now time for the smugglers to fight back.

To this end I propose that players should be able to purchase "shielded cargo containers" for their ship.

There would be some caveats with this however!


  • Such equipment would only be available in some systems (those with a Black Market, or anarchy systems)
  • Different classes would be available, each offering different levels of shielding from scans
  • No shielding class would offer 100% immunity from a successful scan, so there'd still be risk
  • These cargo units would be both expensive and heavy!

Don't forget modifying the scanners so that the higher grades have a better chance of detecting the cargo!

How about if each grade reduces the cargo capacity by one size? For example, an "E" grade Class 6 Cargo rack has 64 tonnes, a "D" grade has 32, a "C" grade has 16, a "B" grade has 8, and the "A" grade has 4?

And damage to the hull reduces the effectiveness of the "shielded cargo containers"?
