Small Ship Trading

just a quick suggestion:


With the implementation of wing trade missions which utilise a cargo depot for multiple deliveries, would it be possible to add this feature to standard trade missions, which would enable smaller ship traders to perform the simple missions like "deliver 60t of Gold/Biowaste/Medicines to XYZ" when they only have 12-32t of cargo hold space, doing the run in a couple of trips.

this would stop a lot of trading board flipping and enable small traders to actually make money trading, without having to resort to buying a bigger ship to perform simple cargo delivery missions, which are a couple of tonne above their hold size.

you could of course have missions that require the delivery in one shipment (time critical or for security reasons) , but this simple change would add a lot more playability for smaller ships.

Is there an assumption said smaller runs would have a limiting requirement attached keeping Joe hauler from bringing in a type-9 and loading out 20 small missions? If so, that sounds like it has potential....
