Trading - Brainstorming Changes

[Belco]

prettier ships!
i never get bored transporting passengers in my luxury yacht, i just keep circling round in turret view admiring how damn good it looks!:P

but in all seriousness, this is a really important question.

pretty much all traders are power trading (i'll admit i am, though i do try RP to keep myself entertained) and as such, we look stupid compared to the NPC's in their 2 transport 4 fighter escort convoys.

If i could change something dramatically without worrying about the complexities of the game engine and lag, i'd make it so you could buy NPC wingmen from your faction to protect you, buy another transport to follow you around, and collect the profits from it's cargo as well as your own, it'd be like doubling your cargo space, except it hangs some 200m off the end of your ship is is very likely to be destroyed halfway through your run.
screw spending 200mil on a battleship buy a whole convoy!

I'd wander around sirius having conversations with myself and be entertained for hours and hours.
