I’m working on the code for buying properties on various planets at the moment. You’ll be able to purchase luxury flats in London or a simple starbase lockup in Cape Town, which will allow you to stash the goods and ship equipment parts that you don’t have cargo space for. When (if) I add the ability to own multiple ships, you’ll also be able to store ships in hangars in properties you own.
Risking the urge to make it too complicated right now, but in the future the quality of your property will affect your ability to get jobs and conduct missions for certain organisation, as well as allowing you to store goods there.

I’ve added a rough edit of the first two music tracks: https://soundcloud.com/soltrader/sets/sol-trader-soundtrack-alpha
Composed by myself and not heard by anyone else yet. Have a listen and see what you think!

I’ve added the debris to the ship explosions: check out this gif:
Those fire trails are actual pieces of debris flying off: you can collect them and sell them later…

Explosions now have firey trails which end up being pieces of debris drifting around the map for a few minutes. Soon you are going to be able to scoop those pieces up and sell them in the market for extra cash: that’s next…
