There should be an option to order food at bars to rerandomise the other events.

For balance reasons this should reduce the maximum event number by 1 each time, so you can't over-eat.

[SonnaBanana]

Yes please!

[LinWasTaken]

i can already imagine getting the same events burger after burger

[Exasperation]

After spending many in-game months trying to get a mission - any mission - with a two-colony faction in hopes of gaining a potential contact I would definitely love to see something along these lines.

This is a great idea, and I’d love to customize it on a per-faction basis. Picking suspiciously at a plate of organic foodstuffs on Luddic worlds, or ordering disappointingly small and pretentious appetizers on a Tri-Tach one.

Might also be nice to have an option to order another drink - and have worse options show up in the list as you get progressively more drunk.

Ooh, this sounds neat for when you dont wanna travel too much just to get a certain event/mission.

[Sorbo]

Clever idea, I like it as well. Especially the part when it reduces total events on a reroll.

I suggest you could also try installing a Comm Sniffer on the Com Relay in that star system, that way if any exploration or bounty missions are randomly generated you will be able to pick them up as long as you are in range of Hypercom.

I don't think that would help at all - as I said, the point is specifically to develop a contact with the faction, which as far as I know can only be done via bar missions.  The problem is that the faction doesn't have very many bars to visit, and almost all of the missions available in those bars are with pirates/independents.

Playing Snooker could also be a way to pass time.

I support burger

[Bulletkin]

Very good suggestion. I support.

[heh]

I also support this, more immersion, options for some fun flavor text, and an amazing way to get more contacts, missions, nanoforge slots and rarer encounters (historian, for example)

Also, burger

I suggest adding beggars on stations that ask for money or food (burger) to give you tips and tricks of where to find profitable ventures. Also, the ability to poison food and drinks to get rid of contacts you do not want!

Bar events where you would trade money (or maybe items) for the location of, say, a research station or something would be excellent! I'm not sure if they'd be overshadowed by the ability to find points of interest from looting probes or not, though.

Also, the ability to poison food and drinks to get rid of contacts you do not want!

Ehh... I get the idea, but that seems a little too specific... You can just delete contacts through the intel menu. Perhaps you could hire somebody to kill an NPC (patrol captain or something?) that you have negative relations with?
