I was wondering if there is any way to have a good reputation with these races when you play the normal plot start.
I would like to buy from their shipyards. Specially the yaki M5, M4 with a lot of shields look awesome!
So is there any "legit" way or do you need to script?

Thank you

Well not really. Its because when the ship is created, it gets certain race status assigned to it, ie. Relationship to Argon = -33333 (ie. enemy) and doesnt use a global race status.

I found that you could only change this value when the ship is in the current sector, hence the slow load of the Pirate start.

Too bad.
So Capping is the only option?

Can you land on any of thier stations? if so, trading can boost your repulation.

Or, you could try killing their enemies - I think that would be Xenon, Khaak or Pirate.

If you can land, check the BBS - missions might help you too.

So you still can boost the rank reputation.
Does it also work with pirate, xenon and khaak?

I think it works for all races but... with some races you are so evil that you would need to kill millions of 'enemy' (hostile to them) ships just to become neutral. However with the Pirate, Yaki etc. you have a chance of getting neutral because they aren't that hostile to you, just enough to attack you a little.

However, as soon you attack any pirate ships/stations your race relationship will drop massively, it also doesnt help that if you improve you race relationship, then it will not be reflected on any existing ships just newly created ones. You also have to remmeber for every pirate you shoot at, you need to kill one enemy. So if you been attacking pirates all the way though, then it will be very hard to get any relationship with them.

Pirate bases have ability to hack this and enable to you land. Selling goods will help your race relationship.

For the pirates. You can 'modify' your rep.
1) Enter 'Thereshallbewings' as your name.

2) Create a new script and go;
>General Object Commands
>Find a script that adds notoriety to a race and put max on pirate.
>Run the script
>Find a pirate station
>i.e) Ore belt
)Loomanksrats Legacy
>Dock at the station

3)Do somthing pirate like
)i.e Pay for protection
)Hack a station
)Smuggle illegal goods
^^^^^All these can be found on the BBS bulletin.
When you look at a BBS board on any station, you sometimes see a thing from roguey's mod saying your rank with each race, wealth etc. The pirate's rank should be at 10 and in green. I have found with just the script it does not seem to work! Tell me if this helped. This does not work for Yaki

Thanks you for all the details.
I will try something "legit" first. I didn't kill that many pirates yet...

If it doesn't work, I will try your solution.
