Add Drinking at the Bar to Concourse

Cosmo

Odyssey added the Concourse with bars on the 19th of May 2021. Soon after on April 6 and 16 April 2021, people complained that we couldn't sit on the chairs. This goes back to ED Vanilla (2016), where players wanted to have a bar. On November 14, 2022 we still couldn't sit on chairs and sofas.
November 12, 2022: "It would be so cool when you could visit any space station/carrier bar, sit down and chat with other commanders who just happen to be in the same system, play cards together or something, put on some music in a jukebox or just enjoy the view on nearby planets and moons!"

Well players finally have the ability to sit in the Concourse. It's time for the ground-breaking feature: let players order a drink from the bartender such as Lavian Brandy and add a few card games, chess, checkers.

There are several commanders that have done favors for me. I keep telling them I owe them a beer. It would be nice if we could actually follow through on that offer, even if it's just root beer.

Except you'd have to pay for it. No way you ever get recognized as the owner.

As it doesn’t add anything I am interested in I don’t have a bar on my carrier but isn’t it like Vista a company you are providing operating space too rather than something you own?

We don't even own the carrier technically. It's all something we pay a lump sum to have, then an upkeep cost. If we stop paying for upkeep, we lose it along with the modules. If we own the carrier then we own the modules. However this is all up to the RP preference of the player. It's just that the game will not do anything to differentiate the owner from the owners friends other than the carrier administration control screen/inventory/storage. None of the crew or traffic control seems to know you're the commander of that carrier.

Nothing in what I said proves me wrong unless "other than" is being misunderstood here.

Of course, to have a functional bar, the owning CMDR would have to stock with various beverages and food. And we could have extra commodities like hot wings , pizza, curry and kebabs.

And for the services would need to provide CAT media, Culinary and cocktail recipes.

ARX could be granted based on the number of CMDRs visiting!

I'd like the direct opposite of a concourse bar.
At some out-of the way outposts, there'd only be a "Pilot's Lounge" with a few benches and some (possibly out of service) vending machines for Karsuki Locusts and Cassini Cola. One of the nearby terminals could have an ad for Happy Haulers.
