Scrap Metal mining idea.

[sindroms]

Okay, here's something. No dobut about it, scrap metal is profitable as it is right now, but I feel like a giant opportunity is missed with it.

Imagine this.
Add two minables to drop upon shooting scrap metal field roids.

One is our usual scrap metal, while the other would be something along the lines of:

"Recovered Sensitive Data" or such. In the form of black boxes, old ship tech and so on.
One such unit would have a drop rate of 5:1000
As in, for ever 1000 scrap metal, you would get 5 of that.

Depending on the location of the field, the sellpoint will be different.
If you mine the fields in Liberty, your sellpoint will be either Rheinland or Gallia.

The cost per unit could be around 1 600 000$. So for every 5k of scrap mined, you mine up 25 units, which would sell for 40 million.

But....make them illigal in house space. Because it involved the flooding of sensitive military data to your enemy.




Interesting?

EDIT: I am proposing this because we had minable illegal commodities, but sadly nobody mined artifacts, when you could simply buy them on Crete.
