Suggestion: Local Companies for Sale option

Hi eUSA,

I had a suggestion and I was interested in other people's opinions. I have looked at the Company market and found it to be very difficult to use, because you are locked into only buying from locations you have a license for, yet have to see all the companies around the eWorld that are for sale.

My thought was that it would probably be very useful to have a local companies market that allows you to see what is available locally (as in you can actually buy them) rather than see everything. I'm not sure how best to create this as a mechanic, either adding a tick box option in the marketplace or else creating a new space in the Residence screen. I can't see a tick box being too difficult to code for the eRep developers.

What do you think? Can you think how best to implement this in the simplest manner (if it's too complex eRep Dev's will likely laugh it off)? Do you see any pitfalls?

Let me know!
