Missions are finally more fun and make loads of money if done right. Very good in my opinion, everything that makes money at a reasonable rate demonstrably boosts player activity (just look at Omicron Delta).
But to balance things out, voices have been heard to adjust trading and ore trading, which has been downgraded to 2nd place in money-making. Some people find it annoying that the ore trade has been nerfed, supposedly to reduce the sellpoints to create bottlenecks and force player interaction. That is one point one could start to balance things out.

My proposal however benefits traders and ore traders alike without having to elaborately fine-tune the commodities/economy: to make trading runs more profitable, give large trains/transports above, let's say, 4k more cargo space to even things out. It has alwys been a slap in the face when an expensive 5k transport is only capable of hauling 50% more than a transport half or 1/3rd it's size. Make the cargo space of these space giants 50-100% larger to reflect the size, volume and maneuverability, and beyond that, make POB storage compartments 50-100% larger. Makes ore trading more useful, POBs more useful, gives miners in the field a wider range of profit when filling transports and makes building POBs easier (seriously, 2 cargo spaces per hull segment?). Even the Pirates may profit.

Everyone is happy,no one suffers, gamemasters/developers should be able to do this in less than an hour's work.
