C# Mechanics / Re: Potential Changes to Shipping Lines
« Last post by Jorgen_CAB on Today at 04:49:48 PM »Consider that civilians just use 50% power reduced engines and keep the higher speeds of those ships. This means less ships built overall as they are more expensive but you will still deliver goods fairly equally in quantity perhaps slightly less. They don't pay for fuel anyway so in some sense the lower powered engines can just result in performance issues later on.
So... restricting civilian companies to 50% power engines would automatically result in less ships built.
In addition to this each company should pay a higher administrative fee the more ships they have. I also think that shorter trips should pay way less dividend for companies in general.
