Hauling Auction Missions

Post by Lord Orion »

This idea came from two conversations in chat:
- One conversation about having more in hauling missions
- One conversation about moving a players "home" (meaning lots of resources) from one place to another

That reminded me of those auctions that exist for transporting stuff from one point to another.

The idea is that some NPCs or stores would have auctions to move items or people.
The auctions would have an initial value and date and players could made their offers, the player with lowest offer at the end date would get the mission.

Missions would have requirements (cargo space, passenger frames, finishing date) and could be made in one go or several trips.
Missing a mission would mean a penalty in credits/XP and standing, low standing closes the access to some auctions.

Some harder missions could have events/attacks that might make the players loose their cargo. That can make this missions connect with some new items for PM ships or normal ships.

Just an idea. Say what you think and if it is an interesting enough idea we can try to make it a little more complete :D
