This simple mod does one simple thing, it changes (up) the reputation needed to acquire blueprints, ships, equipment, etc.
The factions that have this effect are the two major factions of every race, the minor ones remain vanilla.
As example, to acquire things from Argon one has to be at least over zero rank. Then all things are elevated one step. To be friend of the federation (or equivalent rank of other factions) you must have +20 (+15 in version 1.01), to be hero of the federation (or equivalent rank of other factions), you must have +30 (+25 in version 1.01).
Military equipment requires +20, military ships require +25 so as capital equipment, while capital ships and blueprints require +30.
New ships added by REM, the XL capital traders, require +25
Also blueprints in general require more rank. The pre-requisites of doing the ceremony (friend or ally) have been moved accordingly in both versions.
Why this mod?
I happily use the mod by Kuertee Reputations and Professions but, despite my attempts, I could not exclude certain factions (minor factions Scaleplate, Hatikvah) from the ranking requirement for buying capital ships. The thing can be disabled for all factions but not for specific factions as I wished.
In my XRSGE universe I revamped many pirate factions and gave them sectors and shipyard. This aims at making a true pirate gameplay doable. It makes sense that major factions, that have the military/capital equipment/ships and most of the blueprints, are more strict in the requirements, while minor factions are not.
While Kuertee's mod requires you to make active actions to acquire the rank, my mod remains passive but as we know to reach +30 you must do a lot more things for a faction than +20 (if I am not mistaken, the rank is a curve, not linear). So minor factions are less demanding and it works even better if using mods that add particular ships (I do in REM) for those minor factions. You can have the pirate version of a capital ship much earlier, but the ship is not so well equipped as the ones form major factions.
This mod can be used alongside Reputations and Professions.
Version 1.2 also introduces the TRADE SUBSCRITIONS requiring no rank and cost less (cost cahnges according to faction, minor factions ask less money)
