Portable equipment docks. Lol, i know it may sound a lil crazy at first but I had a think about it.
You can land on large carrier craft in the same way that you land at a station...so why not turn a large carrier craft into a station? It would be similar to the ferry that takes you to the planets and could possibly only be available to dock at when you reach a certain rank with a race? To make it fair for player purchase though they would have to cost a bomb and would have to have a very slow speed.
I think it could be quite useful but it'd have to be thought out because the advantages of it are kinda huge, lol.

I had a similar idea earlier, since i had just removed half of teh asteroids from Ore Belt, i was struggling to pass it round my empire.
If i had something like, i could fill it up, jump it into the sector that needs it most and leave it there for a little while.
Got plans to get around that, altho not until i have several 100s of millions. Want to set up a network of trading docks, and use the SDS script to move all the wares from one central dock (maybe a coupla of them?) to others in remote places, will take some time setting it up but i reckon it would work.
