As far as others buying upgrades, since they affect the ship's operation, only the Captain can approve and purchase them.

Crafting will require a significant amount of work to be performed by players. Basic ingredients will need to be mined, farmed, or gathered. The quality of these will affect the final form of what is being crafted.
A player can only have one crafting profession. There will be a leveling mechanic, which will open up new items which can be crafted.
Minigames/Skill Checks - To gather or craft materials, a minigame or skill check will need to be satisfied. Failure to correctly answer will result in degraded quality

Crafting Professions - items crafted can be used, sold in the market, or auction house

• Miner - can mine and process raw ingredients needed by other crafters
• Tinker - can craft bombs, stinkpots, grenades, etc
• Leatherworker/Armorsmith - can craft clothing, armor
• Gunsmith - can craft cannon shot, guns
• Weaponsmith - can craft bladed weapons

Example of what is needed to craft a ceramic grenade

• black powder - saltpeter & sulphur gathered from a miner (from cell locations), charcoal from the market. must be mixed in correct ratio. an improper ratio will result in a lower quality
• ceramics - clay gathered from a cell location, water, oven (purchasable ship upgrade). the correct ratio + time cooked will affect the quality
• shrapnel - rocks can be gathered from any land location, nails can be purchased in the market, etc
• slow match - hemp can be gathered from a cell location or purchased at a market, saltpeter from a miner, water. quality will be degraded if not given enough time to soak

If you have any ideas on minigames, skill checks, items to be crafted, etc., please reply to this post
