What about when you get to a shop there will be a new tab where there will be a list of missions. Those missions would get you nice loot and some money, Kinds of missions:
Bounty missions- Kill a special ship and return to the shop with its core to complete it.
Cargo missions- Get some (unusable) items on your ships PlexStorage, get the location of a shop/spacestation to bring this to and get the money. To spicen it up: when carrying these items to its destination pirate spawn rates will go up by 90% (of course with a limit to 5 pirates tartgeting you at the time) So this is a more advanced missions
Escort mission- Same as Cargo missions but escorting a (Very vulnerable) ship. The amount of damage the ship has will depend your reward. For example. Base reward is 1000000 Cr but when ship gets damaged for 25% you only get 75% of the reward (750000 cr)
Whaddaya think? it adds some nice RPG elements without ruining gameplay since this is optional.
