I think it would be cool to have a small cargo hold in the pod that can be filled with 3 resources.
1. Water
2. O2 / Air
3. Nutrients

These resources are ONLY used while you are in space, even if you are in a ship.
They have to periodically be refilled. Let's say around once a week.
If you run out, you die and wake up in a new clone.
If you die while in a ship, your pod get's ejected and the ship floats in space.
The resources can be purchased on the market.

What problem does this solve?
What does this do other than adding another layer of complexity?

Sounds like a wonderful way to nerf the hell out of wormholes, recon, supercaps, living in nullsec and a million other things that d0on't allow for constant and immediate resupply. Roll


In short, a waste of time and effort, adds needless complexity and removes fun. Do you really think a ship doesn't have food and water on board? And that a pod doesn't have ludicrously advanced life support systems already?
