I love every bit of it, and please do include the optional bits :D

Yes this is important question.
What about REAL NPC stations in sov space.
There are usually few in i think every region.

It is bad to make them destructible , but without this no one will keep main assets elsewhere

Ok well it was a longshot but if we cant destroy NPC stations how about letting us reinforce them in a traditional manner and 'lockout' people that try to hide in them? Let us exert greater control over our areas of influence and force people to fight.

So what I'm getting from this is; never log off docked in a citadel when you have expensive implants, use a cloaky scanning interceptor instead. Got it.

I assume any installed jump clones in the Citadel and the implants plugged in to them would be destroyed too?

This is a really good point and one we discussed. In general we don't like the idea of design that have annoying workarounds like this.

So if the structure explodes you would rather log back in space in your pod?

EDIT: Far away from the original location so you don't get camped

Why no NPC convoys instead of this magical transfer of assets ?

Would be awsome to have a caravane of NPCs going from wreckage or a safe place to the chosen destination.
Only the asset owners would know the location, route, and time at which this convoy will travel.
Heavy defence would be needed depending of the attackers force.
Heavy NPC defences would be present as well, i don't know..

Something more interesting / gameplay-ish / living, ... than this magic thing.

It's like you mostly thought about security of assets than the game itself, kinda sad.

I live in w-space and we don't generally have any expectation of keeping our stuff....

But seriously?! All the ships and loot in a nullbear structure magically get transported someplace safe, but in a wormhole the only chance of getting anything back is to build another structure? Once again, w-space seems to be a bit of an afterthought.

One of the great thing about taking out POSs in w-space is the chance that the SMA is loaded with shiny things. Now, that's gone. So instead of breaking down someone's house and looting it, you're burning their house down with the caveat that if they rebuild it in a month or so their furniture magically appears again.

Maybe structures that get destroyed in w-space should send loot to Thera. That would make more sense than just being in the ether until you build another structure.

Here's an idea. If you're really bent on saving player assets, then the ships, loot, etc. should pop into a container that is PW protected and indestructible for a period of time. If the residents that lost the structure want it back they can seek it out and get it. If the attacking force doesn't want them to reclaim their stuff they can camp the containers. If the period of time expires the containers lose PW protection and then begin to decay. Should you happen upon one, it's your reward.

I prefer the loot pinata though. Please find a way to keep the pinata.

Sorry if this is all over the place. People keep distracting me with work and other unimportant non-eve things.

Could be a service offered by pend insurance if you wanted to add a fee / isk sink

Offering different insurance packages during the original onlining of the structure, the output insurance level can be listed to people docking and allow them to choose to dock there if they are willing to risk a lower return in the event of sudden explosions.
