I think it would be a great idea for the dev to put an explanation of planet wide adds on the loading screen that mostly has a picture of jabba the hutt or a jawa telling me what they are. I think almost anyone who would shell out 50 bucks for this game knows who these types are. Instead use this space to tell new players about how they can find PLAYER made shops. An even bolder idea would be for you to advertise your shop in this space!!!!! For a large credit fee (master merch only) you couldhave a short term fill ion the blankgeneric ad for your shop run in the loading screen for players on your server coming to your planet. There are ads on the city busses where i live so it would be like merchants putting the same type of ad on a shutle.....

great idea


Only issue I see, is that those look as if they are housed on the local drive, because they are up in the default blue, and if you have changed your UI, it color changes as you load. So the issue would be what server you are on, because you would want ads for shops on your server, and it looks like until the "Color Change" of the UI, that screen fairly dumb. But I am just looking at the change of events, and guessing.


Tag for a future list, maybe they can look into it after the countless bug fixes
