' Wrote:With fluctuations in pricing, it may also become desirable to haul mixed cargos. In Ventana's scenario, an ALG transport might well decide to haul a couple of hundred units of mixed sundries to Elbich in order to keep their pricing at an optimum level.
Look, that would be ooRP and not what ALG is designed for. We transport waste, scrap, nuclear stuff and heavy industry metals. ALG does not supply the mining facilities of others. That's what the correspondig company is responsible for. We would need at least some people in every faction, in order to keep this system stable. Kruger would need to be active, as we get some raw materials from them, or Gateway decides to support our common ally. Would give some more sense to the generic shipping corporations.
' Wrote:Also, if we can impliment negative effects against a base for lack of supplies (maybe goods/equipment cost more on the base, or something) then it will give 'cutting off the supply route' a real reason for factions like the Privateers.
Indeed a very interesting idea. If a certain faction interrupts the supplies for the mining or pruduction facilities, the corresponding house would be forced to intervene against the aggressors. That would certainly rise the tensions at some points, but would be a good way to bring activity to a bunch of factions.
