Server Suggestion PPS Deliveries from player to player

[Harold Baker]

Suggestion Title: PPS Deliveries from player to player
Suggestion Description: Add a system for people to package their chests, and sent it as a package with PPS. A courier would then get a pickup request, pick it up, and deliver it to the other person's location.

This could be used for example by shops in Bazaar, by planning deliveries for orders that are finished.

Why should this be added?:
Gives more options to PPS, and gives shops more opportunities.

What negatives could this have?:
Possibly less traffic at Bazaar

What problem would this suggestion solve?: N/A

Who pays the couriers 10% SHARE?

Who pays the couriers 10% SHARE?

I would guess the person placing the pickup order (shipper). Since he is the one actually placing the order. The consignee would just be the end location.

I think a really cool twist on this suggestion in my opinion is to make it like a shipping packages / offline gifting system.

Players can drop off a chest at the PPS building for it to be shipped.

select a player by searching via details like (phone number or Steam ID).

Pay a certain fee (some thousand dollars)

If a courier is online, they can deliver it to get the full reward of the fee.

If none are online, it is kept at PPS and the recipient is informed via automated texts daily or weekly

If couriers are online at the time of drop off, but the recipient is not, then the couriers get paid an equally split share of the fee then the automated system handles notifying the player to pickup their delivery at the station.
