So we came up this in staff, and this is a good idea I think.
Basically, instead of trying to create a value for the credit, which is a difficult task, we abstract it to what you can buy, not what it exactly costs.
So to do this like with the sublight speed scale, this would have a partly hyperbolic scale showing what a character or corporation can buy.
We'll need to fill in the details, but the example given was that
Tier 1 can buy a single sheet of flimsiplast
Tier 10 can buy a Death Star.
Obviously nothing in the factory would ever be at those extremes, but rather than working out how many credits something costs, simply put it on a scale.
Please fill in ideas.
