Dancer Tax - TIPS/1000 = 45min charge


0/1000 = 45min charge of 0 ...Wont work nobody tips then.....on we assue they get tips


1000cr = 45min for dancing...that would work


Blaster Tax


Shots/1000 = 45 Min charge for using you blaster


So I run 10 missions make 1000-10,000 crs


I shot 1000 times so


1000/1000 = 45 min charge of 1 no that dont work


A flat fee of 5cr per shot....so


5*1000 = 5000cr for you mission runs,,,that will work


Burst run tax


Burst run time in sec * 1000 cr = Tons of money out of your pocket


Think about it ...you can plod along or you can hit burst run for 60 sec...it only takes 60k in credits for that...ya that will work
