Post [Code] Transfer to:
When you're within scooping range of somebody and press X on them, you can have the option: Transfer to.

With this you can transfer items to the other player, and not toss and scoop. When the other person lacks hull, you'll get a notification.

Making trading easier :).

Maybe even a /trade command? Trading cash for items, or items for items, also reducing the chance of scamming.

Once the confirm button is hit you can no longer put anything or take anything away from "Your trading items".

Once the other person hits the confirm button it completed. Also have to take in-account hull space etc.

How about a trade box like they have on Habbo :3

Haha with double confirm where when you press accept you have to wait 5 seconds until you confirm the deal to fully make sure.

Post Re: Transfer to:
Runescape system

was exactly like that with the box on left on right, but there was a confirm screen after that which was then added that showed exactly what was being traded where you couldn't add/remove shit because people would remove their end of the trade at the last second to scam peeps

Someone was working on a trade dialog where you dock with another ship and then can trade items like in other MMO's, but that person seems to have abandoned it. I'd still like to do it eventually when we have time.

In the meantime, something like this suggestion could be cool, though it is quite inferior to a real trade system, so I'm not sure if it's worth looking at or not.

Dock with another ship seems to be unfair/unequal. It implies someone is submitting himself to another. Also can be implied that the player ship docked at will have full access to other player.
