docking on pob, show supplies needed - evanz - 10-07-2014
is it possible that when a player docks on a POB whos isnt admin, that when they press f9 they can see what FOW and RA is needed
can that be made possible?

Or just see how much is there already? Maybe current/max? Would be pretty useful for people who want to supply PoBs.

Some pobs have a "if you don't see so and so commodities on sale , it's because we need them " written on the station info.

This is not a bad idea; however, if an enemy sneaks in an alt character, he can metagame when to siege the base because it has low supplies, if the info page shows exact amounts; so it is also abusable.

well if a pob struggles to have at least one person supplying regularly then perhaps its not worth that base being alive, no matter if an enemy alt sneaks in etc

Or, you could do this with every commodity on the base; show "current/limit" so people can tell how much room there is and whether they should bother trying to sell things to it.
Also, metagaming with alts? Really? What's to stop people joining, say, LN and GRN, being in both skype chats and reporting on what the other guys are talking about? Onoes, let's remove skype...

This isn't the correct sub-forum. The PoB sub-forum is a inRP forum for Base owners to post the existence of their base and fulfill deals and/or give/sale docking permission on their base.
