Description

Does the fact that highly complex stations can exist with no maintenance bug you? Do you think that the faction letting you host a station in their space might actually want to make some money off of you? Do you just want you game to be more "realistic"?

This mod adds taxes and upkeep fees to your stations that you pay at an hourly rate. (And more to come!)


Features

- Taxes based on your diplomatic relations with the controlling faction. (Unclaimed sectors and your own sectors don't have any taxes)
NEW - Collect taxes from NPC stations in your sectors
Tax rates are based on current cost of that plot.
Enemy 8%
Neutral 4%
Friendly 2%
Member 1.25%.

- Maintenance fees based on the size of your station. 
Production modules cost between 500 and 1000
Hab modules between 1500 and 2000
Cargo modules between 200 and 400
Piers between 1000 and 1500
Shipyards between 2000 and 2500
Wharf between 1000 and 1500

- Fail to pay your taxes? Expect your relations to decrease with the owning nation.

- Fail to pay maintenance fees? Chance you structure may breakdown and stop production.
