Devlog #3: Items and Trading

Marketplaces and independent traders are where the galaxy's goods change hands—ship components, medical supplies, data chips, survival gear, and almost anything else the Greywake might need.

In Greywake items are used narratively. Equipping or unequipping items to yourself or a crew member will trigger a narrative response. If you give the Engineer a ship component, he will begin installing it. If you give an encrypted data crystal to ARIA she may ask if you want it decrypted.
