I've mentioned it before in Discord and someone said it wouldn't be possible code-wise or too difficult but I'll post it here just in case.
An idea I had was to give more usefulness to POB's: Just as they currently manufacture ship equipment by feeding it materials, an added module could make for ore processing or x-commodity (food, fuel, drugs, luxury goods, etc) processing or some sort where you feed in "raw" materials/commdoties and they get "refined" into a more valuable commodity to be sold somewheres.
Might make for interesting dynamic to trade and RP.
