I have seen a lot of talk on different forums about letting the public use your POS structures,
with the new changes coming.

My surgestion would be a Custom Office for POS.

You place it outside the shield and it will turn up on your structure list at the POS, and will
requere CPU and Power like the other structures.


When put online, characters accesing it will be able to see, the structures inside, they have
been granted access to.

This means that on the structures (Labs, Assembly arrays, Refinerys....) you have the following

- Cost to start job
- Cost per hour
- Grant access to Alliance members
- Grant access to Corporation members
- Grant access to public

So Alliance and Corporation members would also be able to access your structures through this custom
office and you wouldn't have to give them access to enter through your shield.


Characters using the structures will be the only ones besides the CEO of the corporation who
anchored the tower and structures, that can stop running jobs.

And when a job is stopped the blueprint will be returned to the Custom Office for POS, all
other materials are lost.

A Custom Office containing blueprints or materials can not be taken down, until it it is
empty if the Corporation gets a War Dec.

This would also put some competition into manufacturing, research, because Corporations
would compet to have the best price

A clean and simpel way doing it.

I proposed something similar in starbase changes thread, this solution solve much of the hassle of touching POS code.
