Identifying plunder vs non-plunder items...
There seems to be quite some confusion to many people as to what items in the game are plunderable and which are not. Although there is a list (somewhere on the site) for them, it's difficult to find for many so here's an idea for Koei. Similar to how a small icon appear on quest for the daily bonus quest, items (gear, ship parts etc) should have something on them to identify if they are plunderable. I suggest a small color coded dot should be on all these items so people new or veteran can instantly know.
Green dot: for items the can NOT be plundered in game. This would appear on uwc and the in game items that are immune to this effect.
Yellow dot: for items that have a 'rare' chance to be plundered.
Red dot: for all other items that can be plundered at the regular rate.
This would solve many issues that players face when playing the game. The dot could appear in the item description and would be very easy to code since each item already has the code in it if it can be plundered or not. This game has grown so vast with so many items that it's difficult sometimes keeping track to what's what.

Problem would be having to go through 10000m items to add a dot or whatever to the list. maybe instead of all items with a coloured dot, maybe just somehow highlight the items that are safe instead
No it shouldn't take going through anything. The code is already there on the items, all it would take is some minor additional scripting for all the items to identify themselves since the script would work with the existing code.
