I would assume you can still log out/crash/disconnect/etc.... but your stackable will be in a cargo box on the ship. (much like the auction mission cargo boxes except personal)
Quote from the dev notes...
It will still be possible to transport goods and resources through space in the current manner, though changes will be made in upcoming Version Updates to address currently existing issues and loopholes that allow for risk-free transport of goods and materials through space
So yeh.. removing log-off.. so choice is pay the fee for cargo box, from which MA doubtless gets a cut and then a further fee to get self to planet you are sending it to, in order to collect it.
So buyer pays for item, AH fee, transport fee for the box and personal transport costs.. this improves interplanetary trade how exactly ?
and more importantly how do MA intend to deal with a no log-off situation, are they tying the avatar and the loots to the ship, so that it can be looted if shot down, whether or not they are in game ?
How do they deal with a CTD.. which could in fact be caused by in-game lag or bug ? will they re-imburse for losses.. somehow I think that would be a NO
How will they determine how long the persons loots are vulnerable.. just to the ship docks... to the end of the day.... next week ????? How many warps will that person be vulnerable for if for instance a winter storm causes power failure, or the PC dies ?
I have yet to see any rational explanation from MA on how you determine if a person has logged off intentionally or had ctd or power fail or any other situation beyond their control
Don't get me wrong I am not against the idea of my having to use my skills and ship to defend the travellers and their loots, I actually enjoy engaging with pirates and have had a lot of success.
I would have no problem if MA could ensure perfect connections at all times, but I would hate to see people lose their hard earned ped because of things they have no control of.
