Non-rock Mining

[mang109]

What if we were to make a slim ship for this purpose? The reason for that was I was thinking that maybe we can limit the gathering to "You'd have to move around to get said resources" the more speed you have the faster you'd obtain it but for feilds with asteroids if you hit something or something hits you, you'd have to re-enter the command again. We can put the most profitable resources in dense rock feilds and put less profitable resources in feilds with no rocks at all and there you have it. Mining/shooting rocks improves your aim a bit and this can improve your dodging...win?

Thats a cool idea

you could design a ship with some kind of sail or trawler net behind it perhaps ? or a filter on the front?

So you have to move around to "catch" the product.

Although, rather than make it slim ( which would be easy to just let go) you could design it so that if left afk it would catch on asteroids and get stuck ( abit like the massive mining ship does now) and get nothing.

Thus you would actually have to do something ( navigate carefully) in order to get your product?


p.s perhaps a modification of the /stuck command would be able to tell if the ship was moving sufficiently fast ?
