What's the chance of you guys making this thing pull the wreck/cargo that's furthest away first, not the closest?

Also, maybe add a "Scoop to Cargohold with Loot" option

Pulling the furthest wrecks first I think is not a bad idea. I always start with the furthest wrecks when I use the noctis.

Not sure about the loot thing. they could maybe add a button like the "loot all" button in dropped containers.

EDIT: Oh, hang on, I remember now, when you scoop to cargohold the unit drops a can in spcae, I agree, they could add a button for that to loot and scoop at the same time :P

Pulling furthest away first also helps in the event you wanna drop two at the same time to loot twice as fast, otherwise they'd just pull eachother's wrecks constantly

It also means that fitting tractor beams onto a Marauder isn't now useless.

Very good devise, but it will be better if it will have possibility of fitting
for example: two slots for using salvage or tractor beam module.
Or t2 modification with two tractor beam module.

Just MJD to the furthest while the tractor works?

If Chribba told you not to trust him, would you?
