Potential Alternative use of PoB Refineries

[LegendOfTheWolf]

Hey guys!

So, I've recently been reading some old posts about how the current economy has left a few factions, a bit irrelevant - And I think this idea as a whole could bring back some relevance.

So, refineries, the act of throwing in ore, and getting metal out? Basic, normal. Now think, what about if we did that with people?

Ok, here me out.

At the moment Lawful factions have nothing really to do in regards to refineries on PoBs (that I can think of) How about... A correctional facility? "Pirate" Pilot goes in, Prisoner comes out? Or we could really spice it up with some more base brought commodities, Criminals go in = Prisoners go out. Doing this could be somewhat good use of Prison Liners. Eh?
Of course this would have to be balanced as I'm not expecting people to "Mine" people out of rocks, but could be balanced to be less than mining, but giving some extra flavour?

For example, if you're PvEing and get [FACTION] Pilots.. they could 100% Becomes a Prisoner. Where as normal commodities from Prisoners, could be like 70% Prisoner, and the other 30% would become Passengers ( As the correctional facility on a PoB - Worked!).

This would work with Orbital Spa & Cruise. Instead of a Correction Facility, you'd have a Tourist Attraction! Passengers go in, and the end product would be split. Passengers, and LUXURY Passengers. (Luxury Passengers want to go on the next tour! Whereas Passengers, they've had their fun, and wanna go home)

If the devs REALLY wanted to go into depth. You could put a "naughty Passenger" as a end product of the Tourist Attraction, maybe they took their murder mystery week too seriously! And boom, the Lawfuls now have to collect said Criminal from said base.

I feel this will give OS&C Some much needed love, and give Lawfuls a commodity to trade - Heaven forbit a Prison Liner gets intercepted by pirates!

Let me know what you think!


P.S - thanks for reading.

PS.S - For those not wanted to read - I made pretty diagram
