Increase Role Play

[daedalus]

I think this is a good idea, as one thing missing in freelancer is a 'dynamic economy' or changing prices. It will encourage pilots to visit more bases to get them on the 'neural net' and make different trade routes.

Maybe a water shortage in the border worlds, or a run on diamonds in New-Tokyo. Pilots would have to look to see where the new demand is and search.

I think this could be done server-side, I've never seen it done though. I think it would be cool, but Igiss would have to think carefully about which prices to raise. There's no point raising a price where the same commodity is sold at a base next-door. Maybe put them back to normal a week later and change other prices.
