As all you eve players have probably noticed, wherever you go, all the factory slots are rented out. This is a major problem, as now there are hardly any factory slots left. I have thought up several different ways with which this problem could be solved for good:
1) Simply increase the amount of factory slots. I'd say about three to four times as many should do the trick.
2) Increase the price of renting factory slots to 10.000 isk, and double total amount of factory slots.
Also, I suggest that factory slots rented but idle for a certain period of time become rentable again.
This should do the trick, all I can do is hope CCP does something about it.

Another option could be daily renting instead of weekly.

Or you could have an incremental rent.
ie
the first slot costs 1,000isk
the second slot costs 10,000isk
the third slot costs 100,000isk

Again, the problem is that some people have hundreds of slots.
Make it skill dependent, if you have skills alowing you to use 5 slots then you may rent 5 slots.
As is, if you increase number of slots they WILL be gobbled up.
If you increase cost dramaticly then newbies wont be able to make their own ammo at low level making the skill useless at those stages.
Only your third sugestion would work, I would not use a multiple of 10 tho, I would use a logarithmetical (english not my prime language) scale, say
(rent per slot)=(slots^2)*(base rent)
Example:with a base rent of 1000isk
1 slot -> 1000 isk
2 slots -> 4000 isk
3 slots -> 9000 isk
...
10 slots -> 100000 isk
...
20 slots -> 400000 isk
The numbers would be per slot, the actual rent for the last one would come to 8M.
I doubt nomatter how much cash you earn per day you want to pay that kind of rent.
My above equation is a crude one at best, givven a few hrs pondering after some sleep I would be able to come up with a much steeper one if that is desired :)

There already is such a skill, its called Mass Production. They just need to link that skill to the number of factories you can have.

I'm not sure I like the idea of you limited by your Mass Production skill. I think if you just let people rent on an ISK/Hour rate AND give the name of the person/corp I would be happy.

add another 0 to all your numbers and i think that should work. |

Forum necromancy is bad. Especially when you dig up a topic THIS old.
