If you don't do this, the plugin will not work.
What is TorchEconomy?
Torch Economy is a collection of economy plugins for the Torch API that provides an extra layer of gameplay for Space Engineers. It is based heavily on (and makes use of)
Frontier Economy's code, expanding and modifying it to make it a server-side only modification.
TorchEconomy.Markets (In Progress)

- Items bought from a station are deposited directly into player's ship's inventory or personal inventory.
- NPC markets can be attached to stations and will automatically populate with inventory.
- Configurable through Torch's WPF UI, allowing the adjustment of base ore prices.

About NPC Markets
There are four market types:
- Industrial: Buys military products high, Sells ore/ingots cheap
- Consumer: Buys ore/ingots high, Sells components cheap
- Research: Buys components high, Sells research commodity items cheap
- Military: Buys research commodity items high, and sells military commodity items cheap.
If you'll notice, markets sell Industrial -> Consumer -> Research -> Military -> Industrial.
