and that approximately 50% of the POBs are decaying/not looked after.

Would it be possible to increase the level of 'Wear and Tear' on a POB, so that if a POB has less than the required Crew on board it decays at a quicker rate?

Something like:
76-99% of Crew - x2 the rate of decay
51-75% of Crew - x3 the rate of decay
26-50% of Crew - x4 the rate of decay
0-25% of crew - x5 the rate of decay.

The RP reasoning of this would be that the full Crew is needed to look after the Base and keep it going. Less Crew, more damage sustained by the Base that remains unrepaired.

Now, ooRP, the clever people would just fill their Bases up with Crew and get around this.

But if it is also put in that, if there is insufficient of any of the Food, Oxygen or Water, that any of the Crew, that aren't covered by the FOW available, die at each of the 2 Daily checks (I have no idea what % or number dies at each check at the moment), ie. Only 400 FOW is available at the check and there is 4000 Crew, then 3600 crew die.

This would get rid of, quicker, all the abandoned Bases/those that are not looked after.

If people want a Base, then they should be prepared to look after it. It doesn't take much to look after a fully repaired Base each day.

A Core 1/2 needs 400/800 each of FOW and 1440 RA per day. 1 5ker trip.
A Core 3/4 needs 1200/1600 each of FOW, 1440 RA and 1440 RH (2880 RA if you only supply 1 Repair Material) per day. That, effectively is 2 5ker trips per day.

So you could display how much ore is on your pob.

• e785615 - hostile defense mods were locked under 'siege mod', which requires for base to receive 8 million damage for its activation. The bases will not attack everyone by default any longer, only if they were triggered to siege mode. Defense mods continue to fulfill nodock regulation role. Their role to identify hostiles is still important during activated siege mode.
  
• 957fdd0 Chain reaction = activation of siege mode to one base, activates siege mods to nearby bases as well (within 8k range as the default value)
  
• a759c4f nearby bases get activated siege mod in chain reaction, only if they are hostile in 'emulated siege mode' to at least one of the attacker. Basically, check for reputation.
  
• 50e15af duplicated white list IFF lists for bases to have its blacklist IFF version in order having better way, which IFFs are enemies to the current base + it regulates nodock blacklist for the base
  New commands were added to the change
  /base addhfac <IFF group> // adds IFF to hostile base list
  /base rmhfac <IFF group> // removes IFF from hostile base list
  /base clearhfac // clears IFF hostile list
  
• 2c7f351 added system-wide + logger warnings to players and admins for chain reacted siege mods activations (similar messages were added in previous commits for activation of siege mode of the targeted base, and for activation of personal self-defense against one player)
  
• 5e3d150 improved siege mode trigger condition
  instead of 8 million sum of damage by all players, the damage must be made by ONE particular person
  in this it will be more abuse proof and will help better to justify rule enforcing against triggering siege mods
  

• replaced return 1.0 to return true, in nodock regulating function, which I left by accident in a previous pull request.
  
• SpaceObjDamaged had been activating SyncReputationForBase too often due to a previous PR, fixed to be activated only once when necessary.
  

• siege_mod_damage_trigger_level = 8000000
  
• siege_mod_chain_reaction_trigger_distance = 8000
  

• (redacted) original discussion (heavily outdated due to super inefficiency proposed implementation)
  
• discord votings: (lazy to insert image)
  
• also made a survey about it among players, more than half of players wish for it. but almost half of players do not wish it.
  
• The balance devs would make the change to remove 'PoB area domination(which shoots all hostiles)' anyway, but in a much more crude way.
  

• After consideration that, more than half of players wish it, all developers except one voted yes, and plus I think it is a good change as well, I decided it should be made. And balance people would do something drastic like removing weapon platforms if not having this code addition, I thought it would be better to have it made in a more elegant solution in my opinion.
  
• built dlls to test
  
• Game masters could make a new rule, that invoking siege mod trigger without attack declaration leads to sanctions, for example:

  This messaged is logged in playerbase_events.log
  
• Fixes #157 , information inside the issue is outdated
  

• Finished coding, awaits coding review
