Multiple ships

I just thought of a way it might be possible to own multiple ships. i am no modder so don't expect me to do anything.
But if you make a base somewhere that can be counted as yours and have it sell only the starting fighter. if you sell your ship there it will remember and have it there again untill you buy it back.
Now make the station sell ships for nothing. so you can buy a ship some where else and sell it to this base and pick up another that you put there earlier.
I'm not sure if tis is possible but it might be woth a try

First of all, you cant "own" a base. Second of all, you probably could set the ship price at a base to 0 so you could constantly switch. Third of all, when you sell a ship, it's gone unless you buy the ship back from a dealer.

It is a good idea. It would certaily be possible to create a garage/base you "own" by setting it up correctly but that is not necessary for the rest of your idea to work.

What would be necessary would be to mod the executable to dynamically write the market_ships.ini and goods.ini files so when you "sell" your ship to the base, it gets set as one of the three the base is then able to sell. You would also need to have goods.ini modified so the correct loadout you had on the ship gets saved as a new package.

Still, it is a good idea and warrants further consideration.

I think this is a great idea to give considerable thinking towards.

Bump!
