Purchased Delivery (Trade Mission)

Mar 22, 2005 kihjin link
For the trading guild mission, there's several options: delivery, procurement, retrieval, special delivery, minerals, etc...

Procurement and retrieval are nearly the same exact thing, except, you get more XP for procurement because you have to buy the items with your own cash, you do get your money back too.

What I'm suggesting is that there be anoher category for delivery that uses the same principle. (eg, you pay for the items, and you get more trade xp for having taken that risk) I don't know what it would be called though.

I dont' understand what your asking for, it sounds like you want a procurement mission that's not called "procurement"????

He wants a one-way procurement. IE: You'd buy the cargo at your current station, and deliver it to the destination. No return trip required. It sounds like a fine, although minor, suggestion to me.

Thanks roguelazer... I was at a loss for how to describe it accurately and you hit it right on the nose. :)

In all honesty I'd rather see the mission be accessible from anywhere to any station, so that if you wanted to go from say Odia to Helios and you were wanting to take a mission while you traveled, that you could contact a station in Helios and take a mission from there and pick stuff up in Odia and just go, which is kind of the same thing except that the mission in Kihjin's starts from Odia not Helios.

But I like the idea, good for one way missions other then special or standard deliveries.
