Delivery orders to players

[Thonys]

Hi devs 

i miss the delivery order to a player 

it sometimes take s me a week to deliver some goods to a player due to work,or vacation,or because a player is on the other side of the map 

perhaps it is possible to make a delivery order to a player where he can get the goods in its own time and not in my time (time sinc)

yep, but you'll need the possibility to secure it with a collateral ... or this will be the festival of scams.

Not totally sure what you mean by "delivery order" but if it is any automated system that magically transports the goods between ports then I disagree with it.

If you mean a system where you can set up a contract for someone to pick up and deliver your goods to another port or even another person for a price, then I think it would have merits, but as Victor says there would have to be some way to avoid scams and what happens if they are unable to deliver because they got sunk or captured.

Things like this are what should be considered for a good self sustaining economy rather than reliance on artificial trade goods.

they just need to allow you to purchase or sell to ANY of the listed COntracts not just the high or low one..
