my idea is to have a compression deploy-able that you have to ad fuel to of sorts online it then you can compress while in the belt without having to use a rorqual or warping to a pos or citadel to improve time actually mining. what do others think of this? be nice for it to have a tract beam to with like a 20km range but ovi short on specifics just a thought

So you want a rorqual but without it being a rorqual?

Things like this have been suggested before. Personally I am in favor of them

Sounds a lot like a Rorqual. It's basically a mobile compressor unit with a five minute deployment timer.

CCP should add more NPC 0.0 space to open it up and liven things up: the Stepping Stones project.

Compression is a very powerful thing. It would be a sad thing to add to something like a deployable.

Need as many reasons to put up proper structures as we can.

I believe that the orca or porpoise should have the ability to compress ores, maybe do it in cycles similar to a can jettison timer this way it's not a rorqual speed.

Kinda defeats the point of having Compression on Citadels, not to mention the ongoing request to be able to tax Compression services in Citadels.

Not in favor, Ore Compression is extremely powerful and the existing ways to gain access to it are fairly expensive as a basic barrier to entry (Rorqual, Citadel + Service). This isn't something that's needed, if you want compression in the belt then buy a Rorqual.

i see some diversion but i understand it wont be good as a rorqual or as fat or maybe use more fuel but this wont be able to mine compress and haul as much as a rorqual only anchor and compress maybe make it under corp roles ao not everyone can anchor one i dont know just a idea pos's compression and refine is good in a citadel its just a convo i had on comms about a possible deploy-able be nice but meh ovi this will be destructible no rf timer and scannable
