I think it is time for a larger secure anchor-able container especially since the current limits of the GSC
the use of such a container would be the fact that it would take a maxed out indy or something like a freighter or orca to deploy beyond the reach or most normal miners and more useful than a jet can

+1 upvote for an anchorable can that holds more than 3,600m3.

I suggested something like that before and for some reason didn't gain much support. I still like the idea a lot.

What problem does this solve? If you want to mine solo without a hauler, surely the Retriever/Mackinaw would outperform these cans?

Lazy afk miners being even lazier, obviously.

I'm not sure whether I should support this as it's going to mean more idiot targets to gank, or not because **** afk miners.

This is the correct answer now and forever.

Might as well make containers larger. If they are worth doing at all, its worth doing to useful sizes.


If it's meant for small operations, it should -at least- be as big a small industrial. 10k and 20k m3 would make them more interesting.

You may want to elaborate on what kind of "operations" you're talking about.

Secure containers should be hackable. If I park my Pod in Bakaara Market and leave, it should be no surprise as to what I find when I return.
