# Factions (factions.rs): everyone who makes gear, holds places or flies
# ships. `name` is what they call themselves; `common` is what
# pilots call them and `one` is one of them, the word in front of a ship ("a
# Drifter Battery"); a faction that fields ships needs both. `stance` is how
# their ships meet yours: hostile, neutral or friendly. `paint` is their
# colors (paints.toml), sold by no dock: found in their vaults, earned by
# their patrons. `gear` is their modules (modules.toml): their guards fit them
# and their vaults keep the best; `rare` only their vaults keep, now and then.
# `research_required` is the research points a blueprint of theirs takes,
# from their wrecks (a hull's `research` per ship sunk) or from scrapping
# their modules (a module's `scrap.research` per one scrapped); left out, it
# is 100. The pocket factions take five times the ships and scraps, the
# Empire ten.
# [faction.patronage] rungs are what giving them credits earns, lowest first,
# at a structure of theirs that takes it (structures.toml): `shop` modules on
# their shelves (a module's id, sold at its first tier, or
# { module = "...", tiers = [lowest, highest] }), `blueprints` you learn on
# reaching it ([{ module = "...", tier = 3 }], each up to that tier), `paints`
# at any dock, `bonuses` for the whole fleet in the hull-bonus words
# (bonuses = [{ stat = "mining", percent = 5 }], stacking as rungs are
# reached) and a `discount` at their shelves (0.9 is 10% off; the best
# reached rung's applies). `markup` on [faction.patronage] prices what the
# rungs put on the shelf: 4 is four times the module's list price at its
# tier; left out, 1.
#
# Core's rows keep bare ids; a pack's carry its prefix (union:union). Every
# hull's and module's `faction`, a structure's keeper, the factions pockets
# name and every fleet's faction is one of these rows.
