-Not Freeports, but planets and/or shipyards. Freeports are, realistically, too small to sell more than one or two ships, if even those.
-Can we work around it so that we can keep important materials such as armor upgrades and expensive scanners/weapons in the hold, rather than being sold off? No reason we need to limit to those "setting-up" only.
-Well, RP-wise, they can ''tow'' in ships from other stations...that's how they're brought to the station to be sold in the first place anyway. (Hmm...Towing ship..ship that carries ships...)
-Probably, imo, the only thing that should change would be the ship and the weapons.
