Player Features and Ideas Discussion

I like the Idea of an anchorable Structure that effects worm hole status (Site spawn rates/Wormhole timer changers/increase chance of rarer sites). Similar to Null sec system Upgrades.

Personal structures? some things here make the game too easy for a player.

Decoy ships/traps i could get behind those +1

Mobile tractor units....allow them to tractor Jet Cans ?

Mobile cloaking generator! An object the emits a cloaking sphere that surrounds a small radius to hide a few ships

Mobile Reactors/manufacturing arrays - using pos fuel while reaction is running - but with limited by cargo hold and production time.
Nothing more demanding than 4h can be build/reacted there.
This will solve issue with corp level pos access.

Radiation shield Shields from any wormhole effect range around 100km positiv and negativ effects

Personally I would like to see more "Static" structures like POCO's in game. This way we could have more stuff to actually fight over in space because wars have very little meaning (especially in high sec) at the minute other than “your mamma”.

I think the best way to fix this would be to start moving station services into space and let them be player controlled similar to POCO’s right now.

The way I would see it is if station reprocessing facilities all got their tax increased or efficiency nerfed. Then systems (not all of them) would have a Facility seeded permanantly in them which can be found via on board scanner (anomaly) and captured by a player/corp/alliance. Once captured and onlined this facility can then reprocess ore at higher efficiency and at a tax rate set by the player which can be variable depending on player standings. This would then become an extremely valuable corp/alliance asset that makes money and is worth fighting over. It would also force competition between alliances to attract miners to their facilities.

To capture one all you have to do is reinforce it similar to a FW hub and then flip it.

You could also specialise these facilities like so:

Ore Processing Facility
Ice processing Facility
Recycling Facility (turns T1 salvage into T2 salvage)
Scrap Yards (for reprocessing modules into minerals)
Research Facilities

The station facilities will still be available but would not be as efficient or cheap to use as in space facilities owned by players

Hmmm... device that jacks with a station's undocking... seems the docking and undocking is computer based...

Since we are talking about actual player owned stuff maybe something that auto ejects people that are flagged criminal or suspect when deployed and affects the whole solar system and they can't redock until they are no longer criminally flagged or suspects.

Basically an auto eject so the flashy reds and yellows can be shot at.

Works on War Targets too.

I like the following:

Mobile Ore Compressor

Mobile Hacking unit (UnAnchors towers that are left unattended for more than 1 month)

I'd like to suggest some revisions to existing structures:

Refining array and it's variants: anchor-able in high sec. Can either refine at reduced efficiency or compress ore.

I'd also like to see POS move to the modular system that has been suggested many times. Or even moved to a system like T3. This reduces lag by eliminating a large number of orbital objects for a single POS station. One that looks more interesting than current, I hope...

I would like to see something that helps bounty hunting. It could be useful to deploy a 'scanner deployable' near a gate or station, that notifies the owner when a certain pilot passes it. That way one could better track a prey.

Make it so Seagull. This "HAS" to be part of the "vision" you prattled on about in the video. Give it to us NAO!!! Please.

Mobile refining array - Uses small amounts of fuel, something over supplied, say heavy water. Works about as well as the standard pos refining array.

Mobile POCO siphon - Maybe only useable in low and null, other wise there would be 50 million of them around jita.

Mobile Miner - Uses a t1 mining crystal and can only mine that type of ore, mines at about the same rate as a one t2 miner on a pre reblance mining cruiser. 10,000 M3 ore hold. Once at 10,000 M3, it spits out a regular jet can with 10,000 M3 ore in it. BUT, the jet can has no owner it is automatically abandoned so any one can come by and scoop it up. Only the owner (or anyone with excellent standings with the owner) can scoop from the unit's hold. When deployed, it will mine until down time and then shut down. To reactivate it has to be scooped up and deployed again.

Mobile Contraband Scanner - Will flag smugglers as suspect in a 50 KM range. Can be shot at by anyone, and does not result in concord but will apply a suspect flag to the shooter. Then, get rid of customs agents and let us players deal with the legality of naked chicks using crazy space drugs in Amarrian bars instead of mindless NPC zombies.

Mobile Camouflage - hides anything within 20 KM from probes, but not directional scanners.

Mobile Decoy - When loaded with a 1 run BPC, it will report a ship of that type to directional scanners and probes.

Mobile Store - Can be loaded with up to ten different kinds of items. 20,000 M3 maximum. A player can then set prices on the items. Players may interact with the store and make purchases. The ISK is not sent to the owning player but instead stored as a physical "isk currency" that must be retrieved. Reinforcement rules same as mobile depot.

Don't know if it was already suggested:

mobile ore/ice refinery,
mobile transport pad (jump cargo on cyno or on another transport pad),
mobile listening beacon (reports d-scan data),
mobile repair array (you can repair your ship in space),
mobile cloak detector (detects cloaked ships within X km)
