The Ore mining review.

[SnakThree]

Another suggestion is to move ore sellpoints from Planet Denver to Planet Pittsburgh, based on the fact you can use safe shortcut California-Ontario-Colorado, and the ores comming from Taus, would be passing another chokepoint for increased interaction chance.

Or.....you can make Lane Hacker or Xeno chars and hit them in Ontario, or on the other side of the Denver-Ontario jump hole.

Not all Tau and Omega ores MUST go to New York.

But obviously very safe route for powertrading and avoiding a bit of possible interaction must exist for who knows what reasons?

Concentrating traders into one delivery point will not only benefit pirates. As you obviously read my message as if it was about increasing the possibility of pirating them. Interactions can happen with other traders, lawfuls and other people in NY.

We should have Trade Hubs to maximise the interaction rates. I would love to see most of the cargo be best sold at Capital Planets and stations surounding them, so that all sorts of people would meet there. Freelancer might have a location where they can offer their services, traders could meet up and form groups, chat can be had. Currently, you just take 2 lanes in Liberty for Nobium Ore, and 4 lanes for Copper/Cobalt Ore. And all but one lane, Rio Grande - Denver, is too short for piracy even. And if traders keep avoiding locations where interactions might happen, they will keep silent untill they get they desired ship, usually capital ship, and most likely will not bother to provide sufficient verbal roleplay, because they didn't had proper chance to do so while trading.
