function int getNumCargos(var name)

Counts all goods of the given type. When given a string, it will match the 'name' property of the goods. When given a TradingGood it will match the exact good.

The number of goods

function string getSummary(var goods)

function var removeCargo(var good, int amount)

Removes cargo from the entity. When given a TradingGood, an exact check for that good will be performed. When given a string, only a name check will be performed, and which cargo will be removed first is undefined if there are multiple goods with the same name. An example would be Energy Cells vs. Stolen Energy Cells. The 'name' property is the same, but the 'stolen' property is different.

Parameters

good Either a TradingGood or a string with the name of a good.
amount The amount of cargo that should be removed. If this is more than there is on the ship, all specified cargo will be removed.
