I had planned a role play where i SRP a station in omega 55 using biodome tech from zoner colony ship to transfer zoner biodome tech
to station to feed DTR and TBH with food some members in DTR new of this.
I had 4 Bases i managed alone and found a way to make them run profitable.
I was accused of OORP when it was not the case and took a forced 4 month vacation for something i did not commit in the way i was falsley accused of just because i defended a friend that was a DTR member if i just left his base alone to be destroyed by the "then base haters" we not dare mention or are allowed to mention this again.
Model of the story when DTR called for help and even while i was not a DTR member anymore i still helped and got kicked in the teeth for it.
When i came back my home system Omega 55 was destroyed My rp was destroyed that took me years to build up after work each day spent long hours putting in the effort. Just to find when i returned that by some take over station story of freeport 9 blah blah blah and now corsairs and zoners sit on opposite sides of the fence snarling at each other through the fence.
Everything i worked for and towards gone......
I started fresh rebuilding every thing i lost all the trades i showed to a friend on discord with screenshots where ever i stop on a station and you look for the best buy or sell price i found that most commodities best buy from transporter price is in gallic space coinsedance or not so anything that can be baught almost on a station that a transporter would could should normally carry sells for best price in gallic space right.
just small thing i noticed so corsairs can trade with gallic stations and planets easy right kinda neutral etc..... and can get resources easy you just need the willing man power.
there is also income in trading we used to do it a lot of times as faction event in DTR all jump in sair transports and see who can deliver the most relics to npc base
like you mentioned to other players they can rp obtaining mining licence etc from dtr for xeno relics right back at you you can also rp with other factions or indie's to supply and upkeep your base if you cant cut it then maybe you doing something wrong somewhere i feed 2 bases and trade alone and im 1 person i cant believe that a whole faction sole income is based on one commocity and that one commodity has so much power over 1 faction.
Clearly you doing something wrong if you cant make the books balance but when you start over charging on a single product you kill that whole product line in business economics version 1.1
If you cant cut it homes just ask for help instead of killing the indies let them work for you instead hand hand off maybe rewards on point system i dont know get inventive...
Anyway try to have fun when this become 2nd job or life it gets boring
Take care and be blessed and remember to ask for help if you get stuck
