Do you know this sittuation?: You have a base, with everything you need inside but far arround there aren´t any traders...

My idea is to add the option to hire the trader/captain you´re speaking with himself(+1000 alignment for traders/+2000 for captains to accompanying faction and 500 silver coins). He will follow you then but you can´t trade with him on journey. You have to add him to your marketplace for enable the trading mode.

For that my idea is to add an utility which have the name "banner of trade" which have to be placed on a gold block for activate it. It will marks 8  blocks in each   direction from the banner (a  17x17x17 cube) as a marketplace(and protect it). Every player can only have one marketplace at a time. When the trader/captain is on the marketplace you can right click on him and there you can choose the option commands(similar to units) and then "add to marketplace" and the trader will stay on the block where he is at this moment and the usual trade menu can be opened from you or other players. Every marketplace have only 5 slots for traders/captains that means you only can have 5 traders there at one time. The traders on your marketplace can also sell your items which you put under commands in his inventory so other players can buy items from you when you arn´t online or busy(for multiplayer). You can also dismiss them like units. Locked out for this options are travelling traders and traders which already belongs to other players but from time to time a traveling trader can appears on the marktetplace!
