New Discovery server proposition - Scumbag - 03-10-2013

I would like your opinions on a new Freelancer server with Discovery on but with some major changes:
- Ship loss on death;
- All initial bases and stations destroyable.
- Bases would not require commodities in order to function, only the functionality of the shields would require them.
- Planets would be the only place where you could get resources and buy ships.
- /restart planet name.

If there already is something like this please direct me to it.

This would require a total rewrite of the Discovery mod.

There are some customizations that server ADMIN's can implement but none of those (except /rename planetname) include the ones you mentioned. But for the /rename planetname, this requires a lot of work constructing restarts.

Don't get me wrong, it's a good idea, but probably not very workable.

Sounds like Discovery of Discovery. People occasionally use that as a server-wide Conn session, and that has base capture mechanics and a credit penalty on death.
