Suggestions / Illegal goods and licensing
« on: November 08, 2022, 02:51:22 PM »
Currently game handles illegal goods by flatly banning certain goods in certain factions
But someone needs to deliver armaments, drugs and even AI cores (Tri-Tachyon?) to certain uses.
In real life restricted goods are handled by licensed suppliers.
How about introduction of licenses for restricted goods?
Limited licenses (can be bought, lasts for a year) and Extended licenses (indefinite, but require certain level of trust) for example.
Separate licenses for armaments and drugs.
Tri-Tachyon could even issue licenses for AI cores.
Maybe even levels of licenses that limits amount permitted (low for small amount, medium for moderate amount, high for unrestricted)
With licenses patrols will still scan you, but when they detect restricted goods, you have an option to transfer license details and they back off (or maybe this happens automatically?)
Seems rather fitting.
