I think that the current system, (that you need to go to other shops after one is out of stock)
makes it better, then you are forced to go to other shops and explore the universe abit more.
But, if they make it so \"restock\" ships come and refill the shop that would make it better.

Perhaps have a system that restocks stores every so often, other than a command... Perhaps trade convoys?
An in-game group of ships which fly station to station, resupplying stores with basic nessecities; whilst opening up new gameplay options, such as raiding and escorting.
Along with this, we could see the implication of new ship types; transports, gunships, etc... Convoys should not be easy targets, rather, they should varry in difficulty based upon the amount of supplies their root station requires... A high tier convoy, for example, could be escorted by a gunship - a ship slightly larger than your average fighter, with alot more firepower...
On the subject of gameplay value, they would also open up an oppertunity for basic escort questing, in which a station may request the player to defend a convoy, in exchange for a random sum of credits upon its succesful arrival.

Lets say that there was a colony based around one shop, and a hostile faction was killing the trade convoys. The colony would be forced to take up arms, and fight! Space battles rawr!
I think it would be nice if there would be a mode which is really creative, so you have unlimited supply.
The shops as they are now are really great, but not if you just want to hang out and build with friends on a private server.

economy issues significantly worse. This won\'t happen.
What it sounds like you want is Creative Mode.

Im thinking that creative mode would make the game too much like MC, perhaps just a simple option in the Server.cfg file that would make the default shop start out with half/max inventory.
I think this would might be able to satisfy all those \"Creative\" nuts out there (dont worry, im part of this glorious soceity too) but still keeps the game\'s integrety, because once/if the default shop runs out you\'ll have to face the Infinite Space, but with this it\'ll be without worries ^^

I\'ve searched for hours and found no other shops, so it would be nice if the one I do have wasn\'t running out with no way to restock it.
In fact it started off with no resource gathering computers whatsoever, so there is basically no way at all to get more, I had to cheat myself a couple.
At the moment I\'m just farming pirates and selling the parts to the shop, which luckily add the item to the stock.
