Limit Hostile Supply
« on: April 15, 2020, 08:42:58 AM »
When two factions are hostile there are, IIRC, only two economic penalties: reduced accessibility and shortages from trade fleet losses. The latter almost never happens to the player markets because of their location, and the former easily becomes 'out of sight, out of mind'.

Therefore, I suggest adding a more direct and nuanced penalty: limit how much demand at a market can be met by hostile suppliers. Possibly to zero.

Why is everyone short on fuel? The Diktat and Hegemony are fighting, and only Eventide can supply Sindria's demand.

Limiting how much demand can be met by hostile suppliers is the effect from accessibility.

I dont know about you but i routinely suffer trade fleet losses until i have overlapping high command
