A complete economy for Frontier Space has never been completely designed.

However a few basic concepts exist with in [[About | FrontierSpace ]] for the possible integration with an economy system.

This wiki file will basically describe Yesterday's Voyage current implementation of an economy interface.

====== Commodity Object ======
The commodity object, defined in mush.cnf.  Is the basic definition file of commodities within FrontierSpace.

Commodities are defined as follows.
  - &VALID_COMMODS attribute.  List in the order of <commod#>:<Commodname>
    - &VALID_COMMODS CommodObj = : 1:Fuel 2:Rice 3:Duranium 4:Tritanium 5:Dilithium 6:Water 7:Antimatter 8:Deuterium 9:Gold 10:Steel
  - &INF_<commod number (found next to it's name in valid_commods)> <Contaminated: 1 or 0> <Explosive Yield: #.# J/unit> <Mass: #.# kg/unit> <Unit name Plural: Kilograms> <Unit name singular: Kilogram> <Volatile: 1 or 0> <Volume: #.# m^3/unit>
    - &INF_1 CommodObj =  0 2.0 1.0 liters liter 1 0.001

====== Fuel ======
Currently fuel is the only commodity actual used in any means what so ever in the FrontierSpace simulation.
