Money is nothing worth - Idea: storage room at stations is not for free

Hi together,

as you all know, money is not really something worth in VO
I just read several hours in this forum, but I didnt manage to find new ideas to make money more worthable, so if there something, I feel sorrow that I missed it.

anyway.
to make money more worthable, I would give the cargo space at any spacestation not for free to the player, maybe something like a scaling for each station (for total cu amount and amount of different cargo slots)
first 200 cu and first 10 item slots are for free at the starting station
for each additional 100cus station cargo space - you have to pay 10000
for each additional item slot - you have to pay 15000

means for example if you want to store at a new station - not the beginning station.
5 different ore types with a total cu of 800 you have to expand your station cargo space for
5 times - item slots : 75000
8 times total cus: 80000

did you get what i mean?

If a mission makes it necessary to use the cargo space at a station because of a full ship-cargo place, and the player is also not having the place at his personal-station-cargo-space: Just let him not take this mission. Anyway, such a limitation should already exists with the current default limits, isent it? (never reached this limit :-)

another think is that the items for ships which can be used with a higher skill level are really to cheap, even if you have been killed for several times, a player who is also a trader is laughing about the money he have to spend for several replacements of his lost ships, isent it?

The developers already have rent-able storage space on their list of Things Coming Soon™, but the amount of free space will probably be larger than what you posted. :)

Only modification I'd make.

Pilots should get free storage not at just the starting or Home station, but all stations of their nation.
Perhaps also, factions could give out certain amounts of free space to players with high approval ratings with them.
