How are ship prices in the kiosks being determined? Are they random, and should we expect them to change in the future?
TL;DRShip kiosk prices were previously random, are changing even in 3.6, and are moving toward a recipe-based approach where prices reflect the hull and its outfitted items.
Yes, you should expect them to change in the future. Even in 3.6, you will see changes. In the past, it had been kind of random, but basically Jake and Rob and the economy team are breaking down the hulls, breaking down the items and moving towards the way that CR wants it, which is all kind of, we call it recipe-based. But it's also saying, OK, well, this ship is outfitted with these items, and these items add X amount of value to the ship, so therefore it should be priced at this level. And CR obviously wants it to be as real as possible. So you saw some of those changes on basically the 300 series, in particular with the customizer, when the customizer stuff rolled out. And then from there, we're basically doing a sweep through all of our other ships. And then the goal is to basically try to get as much of that in 3.6, and then obviously any point patches or 3.7.
