Haxus has talked about wanting to add some random encounters that could happen along the paths of broker shipments.
Would definitely be nice to every so often see a trade ship enter orbit or land at an airport for a while and then fly off again. But also encounters like trade ships sending SOS and need recusing of different kinds.
The biggest issue I see is the question of what ship blueprints should be used. Should the game just copy random ship blueprints you have used already? Should you have to select a trade ship blueprint for your empire? Or some generic default trade ship blueprint?
