[suggestion] - Ship Orders

[Hethwill, the Red Duke]

Simple suggestion.

 

A way to place orders for ships for public crafters to take on. Can be customized with specific trims and/or slots.

this would be huge! been looking for a specific trinc forever now!

This would be good, for crafters and lazy people.

this idea has HUGE ingame market potential. Would be great to see a contract for a ship that you want to buy/build.

Some captains will, for sure, offer fortunes for specific builds to cover any eventual failed attempts.

you could even add in a crafting perk that could let you pick both your trims for say an extra note or more labor hours to make the ship to show the extra time spent making the ship have the stats what you want

Er.... not about perks tbh, I don't really see perks as adding anything specially positive at the moment.

 

What could be added, and this could help, is for a contractor to specify the crafter level interval intended.

 

So in sum the options would be the same as we have while crafting a ship, from quality to the rig types, gold value of contract and crafter lvl pretended.

 

No resources involved, only hard cash.

I like it, but the chance for a specific trim and 3/5 slots is just 12.5% right now. You might have to craft 8 ships and scrap half of them for stiffness reasons. Maybe this gets reworked with the upcoming crafting changes, then contracts might be a nice feature.

I am a lean mean crafting machine ...... HEHE !  Remember the enemy of your enemy is in that Renommee !

It rests on the contract value placed by a player. I might offer a million for a specific Pickle to cover for some mishaps. Someone might offer a lot more for a specific Surprise build.

 

And you might get it right at first and as such capitalizing it good.

The entire crafting system needs a massive re-haul but this would be a good new feature to put into that re-haul  

[themule08]

other issue you have with this..and I like the idea a lot..

 

Is the fact no one wants money or needs it.. 

[Hethwill, the Red Duke]

Would believe this to be possible.

To place a buy contract for ships and have them fulfilled by the crafters.

System cannot be extremely different from resource contracts.

Great suggestion, sir.
