About The Pull Request
I have been asked genuinely about two dozen times in the past month to make an exploitables access quirk. And I figured, since we're in the area, why not spice things up a bit?
This PR adds the following:
Those worried about the BMU providing affordable access to all this stuff do not need to worry: actually getting the items you ordered is not trivial. Try it yourself and you'll immediately know what I mean.
Future crime DLC's will involve adding more black market companies flavored after various elements on Pluto.
How This Contributes To The Nova Sector Roleplay Experience
Exploitables are wicked fun, and so is the BMU gameplay loop of "buy possibly cheap minor contraband and go fetch it". BMU stuff finally no longer costs like 3-4 bounty cubes worth of work for something you might be able to get in time. Security will suddenly have so much more contraband to seize or be dodgy with.
You also get a fun, fully customizable (and very illegal) roleplay prop to design yourself!

add: The Underworld Connections quirk has been added, allowing dodgy characters (including silicons!) to gain access to exploitable information at roundstart. Non-silicons also receive a fully customizable black market uplink, too.
qol: Prices at the galactic Black Market have now fallen drastically to be more in line with general cargo costs, give or take, and should now be vastly more affordable for most people. Pick up one and order some spuriously legal things for you and your friends today!
