Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Moblie structure that when you place it in the system gives u a notification if someone you are tracking is passing through .

Mobile drone hive for deployment of 5 light drones at ranges of up to 40km. deploy, stack it with the drones you want it to field and it'll just attack anything in range according to your safety seetings.

That would be a good idea too, I hear thos ceptors are getting rather annoying. ^^


Tho seriously, since you wouldn't lauch said drones by yourself they probably wouldn't be supported by your skills. Which would make them rather sad drones.

More coffee, relax, chat with friends

A deployable structure with a fleet hangar. Someone has probably mentioned that already, but dammit it is a good idea for groups that can't afford carriers.

in fact mobile pos structures in general would just be a good idea. A way for an explorer or miner to research and manufacture on the go sounds like a good idea for those long exploration roams.

If you scroll up the thread a few, I suggested a mobile generator that would be able to run minimal arrays. Like a mini-POS without a shield bubble. Just PG/CPU for running things near it.

a mobile structure that you can rent out by allowing people to subscribe to the contents inside of that mobile structure. For example if I create my own inventory which I find usefule during my own pvp (50x drones, 10.000 antimatter S, cap booster 200's) then people can become members of my little club and gain access to all my mobile structures for their piece of the pie. its selling convinience (provided that I have structures a bit everywhere, people should be able to see how many structures I have and in what systems and at what gate/station they are located, and how far off the gate/station it is)

D-scan Relay Module

Place the module anywhere in space. Then when you d-scan the scan reports everything in range of your ship, and also in range of any of these modules in the system (belonging to you or your corp). The particular reason I want to see something like this is that d-scan is often worthless as a defensive tool for w-space PvE. Combat sites don't have to be scanned down, so you won't see probes, and the WH entrances are often farther than 14au away. I'm not sure what the best range for a module like this to have would be, but it would even be ok if it only reported things on grid with it. It would also be nice if you could assign a color to the report of each module so you could tell which one was reporting a given object.


Interdiction Nullifier Field

Basically, this is an anti-interdiction bubble that cancels the effects of interdiction bubbles where the two overlap. Because bubbles are a poorly designed cheese mechanic with no proper counter. There should be a method of countering interdiction tactics when you're prepared for it. Then that leaves single target tackling, where a scram still beats a warp stab, and a heavy point still beats everything, but both are susceptible to target jamming, which is countered by sensor backups. This is a much richer string of tactics and counter-tactics than the current "bring a dictor because why wouldn't you" gameplay.

The module should have an anchor time of a few minutes so it can't be dropped and anchored in the middle of most ganks, and it should have HP similar to a disruption bubble.

A structure which has a point A and point B. You anchor your point A somewhere in space and whatever you put in the cargospace of point A will be automatically hauled by NPC transport ships to point B but very slowly in smaller chunks. The dangers involved in owning these sort of "supply chains" is 1. the structure itself can get killed with all that loot inside it 2. The npc haulers can get intercepted and ganked (sometimes legally if the owner is a criminal or has a kill right on him).

The npc's could have their own highway that is separated from capsuleers whenever they pass through gates and stations, i guess the other alternative is npc transport ships that look very official with white paintjob or something.

Killrights mechanic would benefit a lot from this probably.

Also i think these structures has the potential for you to hire different faction NPC pvp forces to escort each little transport ship. So whoever attacks your transport ships has to deal with the NPC's.
