Thread: Request for change: Decorated POB Limit

As it stands now, you can only have 2 decorated POB ships. This made plenty of sense when JTL was first released, since the only 2 anyone would likely have would be a yacht and a faction-based master ship. However, with the advent of ROTW and the Y-8, it seems unfair to prevent me from using the reward ship I received because I have decorated my 2 previously held ships.


My yacht is done up like a party barge, as it should be. My YT-1300 is loaded out like a smuggler's ship, as it should be. Just up the limit by one - not that many people decorate their ships (in my experience), and not that many people care about or will use the Y-8 (heck, no one can even get one currently!), so you're not going to give up that much in database storage.


This should be a simple change (update the business rule that checks for 2 and make it 3), unless the developer who wrote this was shortsighted and wrote it with a hard-coded assumption of 2 ships and it's not physically possible to have 3 without re-writing the code, in which case you really have a talk with the developer and the person who approved that code about the kinds of problems that type of "solve the problem now and the heck with the future" development causes.

No really, I'd like to see this changed
