ID Rework - 5.1 Aftershock: Dev Diary #8, "In Search of The Wild West"

[Barrier]

@Wildkins Here's my take on the Freelancer issue. What you say makes sense if there were a lot of players running ptrans to avoid being engaged. But currently, it makes no sense. You either run a 5k on a faction that's neutral to most along your route, or you run frigates as a freelancer. Anyone wanting to use a ptrans or even a serenity is not doing it for powertrading reasons.

Supply demand will always be at work here. If there were a lot of ptrans running aroubd in house space, more people would log lawfuls to intercept them.

As for licenses - afaik SEO is currently the only ones registered, and that's only in Rheinland and Liberty, because we did a lot of rp there. There's no way joe schmoe will be able to secure a license just like that. You can also make the requirements more stringent since you have gov oversight.
