[2.0+] Useful Stations - Income for Casinos, Equipment Docks+

This mod provides a passive income to various stations that would otherwise be a waste of money. Each affected player/alliance station has a chance to generate money, equipment, turrets, or resources every few minutes, depending on their purpose. If a player is present to witness it, then an NPC trader ship will be spawned to act out the transaction, making the sector feel more alive.

* Resource Depot: Gives resources depending on the station's location. (compatible with Xavorion's changes)
* Casino: Gives $$$
* Smuggler's Market: Gives $$$
* Repair Dock: Gives $$$ - NPCs don't literally repair themselves; they just give you money as if they did.
* Shipyard: Gives $$$ - NPCs don't actually build new ships at your shipyard, they just "repair" themselves
* Travel Hub: Gives $$$ - NPCs don't fly through the big hoop thing like a player would, they simply warp out of the sector after paying you.
* Equipment Dock: Can give money, systems, or turrets. Systems are the most common.
* Research Station: Has a chance to give systems or turrets, systems being more common.
* Military Outpost: Has a high chance to yield turrets and a slightly lower chance of systems.
* Turret Factory: Gives turrets
* Fighter Factory: Gives $$$


Some stations generate revenue more frequently, while others are less frequent but yield more. This mod isn't intended to make these stations incredibly profitable but rather to provide them with a greater purpose aside from vanilla's very niche uses (like the Repair Dock). Some stations only summon a trader every 10 minutes or longer, but it is typically worth the wait.

Please note that your station must have docks to receive profits.
