A colonial marketplace what do I mean with this?
Well simple. A zone were visitors go to and set up shop. If the colony is rich enough and have good enough relations. The player will be able to buy equipment directly from a naboring colony and get beter relations. This are more a planet side way of trade instead of ordering things of world.

With caravans coming and going away, selling stuff in the market requires calm and tranquillity. Who would set up shop in a war zone?

Agree but security etc should also take in to account to.

New feature. You can now trade with other colonies. When they accept the trade they literally send a party with the goods and walk it to you. You then put your goods in the trade stockpile adjacent to theirs. Their people take your stuff and you haul their stuff back to your own stockpile. Of course you could ambush the trade kill the colonists and take everything to the detriment of your relationship to them of course :)

Started using it. They seem pretty filmsy. If they happen to be around during an attack, they'll be gone. Badly. They have no armor and weak weapons.
Does the tent counts as cover?
