More value to ownership

Allow owners of tridents and stations to set prices for repair / reload and use of the ship or station. Allow them to establish multiple classes so that different groups get charged different costs.

For instance the owners guild mates could be allowed to dock / reload / repair / use facilities for free. Other groups could be charged a price set by the owner for each service. This should require a confirmation screen so that that someone doesn't set the price at 10 million credits for reload / repair that auto charges if someone docks.

Only the owner should get free usage by default imo.

If we had an armory on dents (similar to station interface) then repairs and reloads could be charged the same as in station or prices could be set by dent owner for everyone with docking privileges.

Conq stations are another story. At the moment everyone who has access is treated the same. If party that captured station will start setting their own rules - charging others credits for repairs and reloads that would certainly entice much more conflict over who owns stations and todays allies could quickly become enemies.
If we want to spice up things with guild wars (everyone vs everyone), this is not a bad idea.

Although I'm not sure confirmation is needed. Note that the game doesn't automatically repair and reload your ship. The AutoRR plugin does that, so adding "holy shit that's expensive!" detection to that plugin is the playerbase's issue, not the Devs. Nor would it be difficult.
