What is the 'Market'-type equipment?

[bboyadzhiev]

Hello!

I am a bit confused about the Equipment types in the Skirmish game.

What is the difference between the Campaign Start and the Campaign Start (Market) equipment types for an example?
Just couldn't find info about it throughout the site.

Thank you!

I believe Campaign Start is the equipment that the player already has at the beginning of the campaign. Campaign Start (Market) is what is available in the market at the beginning of the campaign.

Here are the actual definitions in the equipment.ufo file:

But it doesn't seems to effect the Skirmish game settings. I tried Market and not-Marked equipment, but couldn't see the difference.
Anyway, I got the idea and applied corrections to the Bulgarian translation.

Thanks for the info!
