My idea is simple. Create a dock at the free ports for small to medium ships that you can doc for fee of gold. She ship will stay their for a fee. If the fee runs out the shipyard npc will auction off your ship to others. This give small groups and solo players a place to store their ship when offline. Also adds fun to trying to buy other ships in auction. Have a limit per company so things dont get crazy or have the gold cost go up per ship and per day of storage.
Thoughts?
