I'm hardly wealthy myself. I usually have between 20-50k on me, and hardly ever spend anything other than on shuttles and training. Usually what I do have on me is leftovers of the money I withdrew from the treasury to pay for other city structures (we have houses set up as public and used for roleplay or shops/etc...)

point proven. While*most* mayors are wealthy, some are not. Those points skill points should provide an option to earn income whether through mission terminals or game-structured stipends from city treasury. (yes, we can always skim or take xxx credits per week, but if it is not really game sanctioned, then it is likely frowned upon if there isn't a real mechanic in place that recognized mayors should get paid).


I really don't want to see mayors being penalized for spending so much time and effort managing a city when they are going broke in the process. Would I use missions or stipends from treasury? no. I'd likely try a few poli missions, but wouldn't do them regularly.


It would be nice to see skills for missions like 'soothe crowd of rioters'. Imagine a npc riot erupting in yoru city. You have to go and 'calm' everyone down or other NPC driven missions.


It seems to be too small a player base to invest time on, but it *should* be there.
