Transfer a percentage of your income to allies

from Sins Forums

I think it would be good if players were able to transfer a part of their income or a steady cash flow (for example 20 cred/s) to other players. This would be useful in games vs AI, where a weaker player could be forced to transfer income to a stronger one - finally you don't have to destroy an enemy and recolonize his planets in order to boost your economy. In multiplayer games eco players could transfer cash to front line players without having to click the donation buttons all the time. Everybody who has ever been in an eco spot with >100$/s knows that you basically spend half of your time clicking on donation buttons (or please at least allow a way to transfer more than 250 per click).

Would certainly be an interesting option when you've got greater splitting between the tech trees, potentially allowing players to really specialize as they'd have the support available if they need it.

yes, I had that idea too once, not sure whether I posted it. any case, I agree, if you are in well defined feeder position that would certainly make life easier.

it would also be an interesting way to vassalise beaten enemies. reparation payments so to speak.

There's actually going to be a couple of ways to do this - every race will be able to gift money to another player (as you can do currently), but one of the races new diplomatic techs will give a sustained, greater advantage. ;)

It should be possible to demand Tribute, One sided treaties (eg open borders for you forces, but not for theirs) arms treaties (eg limited numbes of certain types of units,)

Possibly being capable of demanding relics from other factions planets be tranferred to your own might also be an interesting capability.
