...gathering some ressources asked by shops?
...hunting down pirate bases threatening traderoutes?
...finding a rare ore in some planet ruin?
I thought that\'s already what people did when not building their ship. You know. Because unless you cheat, you need to gather everything..
Granted, having the shop issue you \"Destroy the pirates at X location\" quest-ish things would be nice, sometimes I search pirates for hours. And in the end I give up and return to base before going so far it\'ll take a day to return.
