Dear Frontier,
There are quite a few deep space stations which pay good money for mining commodities including : Farsight Expedition Base at HEART SECTOR IR-V B2-0, Base Camp at SOUL SECTOR EL-Y D7 and Sadr Logistics Depot at SADR REGION SECTOR GW-W C1-22.
The big problem with mining at any of these stations is the fact they do not have shipyards(or outfitting). Right now with mining profits it could be really worthwhile bringing a big mining rig(big3 ships) out there to mine. The real problem is getting there and back. Going out with a jumpaconda, summoning the mining rig and flying back quickly afterwards are needed for it to be practical and profitable to mine in these areas. Even with the big cost of summoning the ships, it is recouped quickly with current mining profitability.
Can we maybe have a CG for deep space shipyards?
They do not need to be stocked with anything, much like the prison ships, just have ability to summon ships and modules from the bubble.
Another idea which I think fits in really well is to have ultra-rare materials which can ONLY be found in certain regions of space. Unobtainium-23 which is only found within 100ly of the soul nebula, and sells for 3mil per unit. Would be great and bring players out to these remote regions.
