Thanks for the positive responds (and someone one starring it)
The idea is very haphazard and everytime I tried to think it out more it became more a mess so I figrued posting the concept and ideas that I thought works would be fun.
As for some time thinking I was thinking of some changes.
1st off... their activity on the station.
The cargo thing is gonna make people meta around the cargo, to prevent this. There will always be 1-2 inflitrants.
Aka people who are hired by NT, but are there to help the company. They will have a company headset and their PDA can mail to the company.
Inflitrants will always be a QM.
They can also print "Stickers" to re-route packages to the "business" from their PDA.
Next change:
INTERACTION.
While theft is fun and all and causing chaos too. I think this company needs another way of doing business and incentive players to interact that isn't "KILL"
"Selling things"
Take the chaplains contracts but make em actual contracts.
Like a life insurance that pays out the moment you die kinda stuff.
Have players want to "help" antagonists to get things in return.
But how will these antags reach their targets? "SPAM MAIL on PDA"
Yep.... thats what I am going with. Pretty much players who have "bounty" stuff on them, can recieve spam mail from these antagonists to setup a deal with them.
"Have a spare Liver? Trade it in at XXX Company for a [insert reward], Come to "LOCATION" and meet a representative."
Heck some of these rewards can be items/stuff that can help a lot during your shift. Aka chemicals or materials that are hard to find.
But the antagonist can also just kill you and swipe it after.
Last but not least:
MLM business models! Cause why not add a pyramid scheme to the company.
The company will have to order items in bulk and sell em off to make their profits. They cannot "BUY 1 ITEM" They have to buy 50 and sells them off.
But this dumb mechanic is just a fun "maybe"
