Reply, YUS Dopa! reply wud be gud!
Bank comand allows you to open an account, deposit cash and withdraw cash ... and the best part ... you can share the account with whoever you like. No more need for bank characters or dropping credit cards in open space. No need to request others to do a transfer for you (works only with cash ... not equipment).
Create an account and deposit cash ... tell your faction members the account name and password ... they can all deposit (no need to wait for the bank to login) and you can withdraw as needed.
Another neat thing about the bank command. When a faction wants to purchase a system ... they just tell admins which account to pull the cash from.
a non char based bank account would have an advantage and a disadvantage...
the current sanction system is mostly based on the one character that is affected. - so when a trader F1, he is sanctioned by having his money taken away from this char.
when a simple command can "store" the cash on a virtual char, - any trader might simply always put ALL his money onto that account, - its safe there... AND he would have a REAL excuse not to pay up pirates.... cause he would really not have cash at that time, on that char. ( or the other way round, pirates might demand a trader to draw cash from the shared account, which they "suspect" exists - even if the char might not have such a shared bank account ) - a lot of uncertainties there.
so - whos cash would be removed in the case of a sanction?
how can pirates pirate traders that have no cash on their char?
