Base Building

[Wes_7569]

base building on planet surface and in space. we can have it in systems that are not occupied or low population, maybe under 500 thousand or something.
Using the orbital screen when looking at the system or when landing on a planet the player can choose where the base will be built. Everything to build these stations can be bought in the markets and completed through missions.

well considering alot of what you propose if going to be in carriers, i dont see why this code couldnt be used to do this. However Fdev WILL have to address the issue of persistence. IE, the base continuing to be there after the owning player logs out.

Exeider,
Didn't even think about that with the carriers. Good point. If they make it Squadron related, it should make it stay even if all players are logged out

Uh, you didn't think of using the search or at least peeking at the last couple of pages?

Why don't you take the conversation here, for example: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threa...ild-bases-encapments-on-planets-moons.508175/

I love the idea of a base, but as always, it's in the implementation. Star Citizen does have a nice idea of a player hangar, but something like that would also work within Elite. Perhaps a good halfway point for Frontier is to give Commanders their own, personal space in the Galaxy that we can customise and use to interact with each other.

+1 for me...

Yep. This would mean they have to store allot more data for each commander on their servers.
