Community Feedback: Helium-3 Mining

[Mr.Jamison]

IMO, this economy rework which integrates POB's is a great idea and much needed.

As a veteran Disco player whose RP has always been that of a life-long Ores, Metals and Scrap hauling businessman, the possibilities that it presents is exciting.

I'm not inexperienced in FL economy modding, but it's been a long while.
As such, I can appreciate the work being done and the people doing it. The Economizer sounds brilliant. But, as always, the devil is in the details.

This is not a gripe, as I know that these things take time. However, the mod is kind of in Limbo while these changes continue to coalesce.

Also the decision to make a substance which is mandatory to the building of refineries a mineable commodity only available in the Uncharted systems, the inclusion of some pretty viscious Gas Cloud and Rad fields in and around mining areas and their access jump holes, as well as having another much needed commodity like Silver locked behind Unstable jump holes which prevent the use of transports are some curious inclusions for which I, as one, would like to hear the reasoning.

Maybe it will all make sense when the economy is completed, but these currently have me rather puzzled.

Additionally, it seems that the capitol ship changes have been made to "make things more competitive" and "give traders & escorts a chance" essentially mean that Disco is now a mandatory RP/PvP server rather than an RP server which also has PvP, and that all future attempts to Convoy these necessary POB supplies will always be subject to the resident group of Disco lolwut Aces who maintain ships (frequently including Caps) in multiple unlawful factions and whom routinely counterlog trader convoys and engage in what at least borders on Griefing.

As much as I have hope for this patch and it's possibilities, these are things that concern me looking forward.
