What are contracts?

Contracts are a way to contract other orgs or contractors to fulfill certain kinds of work.

Contractors may:

  • Accept contracted work offers from players looking to make use of your services
  • Get notifications in your Discord server using webhooks to alert you to new orders and contracts
  • Post contracts to the open market to allow interested contractors to apply
  • Review contractors to ensure you are getting the best work possible
  • Find contractors whose skillsets align with your needs

What are the kinds of contracts?

Contracts can be placed in one of two ways, either directly to an org or user, or they may be placed on the Open Contracts list, where contractors can apply to be the ones that fulfill the contract and receive the reward for doing so.

What kind of things can I contract for?

Orgs may offer any number of custom services. The most common services that orgs may use for contracting include

  • Sourcing specific items or resources
  • Escorting cargo carriers
  • Requesting medical or repair help
  • Individual transport

These contracts can be tailored to the specific needs of your org depending on the kind of work you offer.

Order Templates

Order templates allow you to define a set of default entries for the questions in the order creation form. Using these you can lay out the specific services you might offer, and use templates in the description to ask about details you will need in order to fulfill an order.
